Hoff’s Pie Filling Cookies
Yields: about 1 1/2 dozen
dairy-free, egg-free, oil-free, soy-free, gluten-free


Ingredients:

• 20 oz. can Crushed Pineapple in Juice
• 2 1/2 cups Whole Oats
• 1/2 cup Sugar
• 1 tbsp. Baking Powder 
• 1 tsp. Sea Salt

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees
2. Meanwhile, blend all dry ingredients, using a high speed blender, until a flour-like consistency is reached
3. Stir in Pineapple to incorporate
4. Drop spoonfuls onto a non-stick cookie sheet or parchment paper lined cookie sheet
5. Optional: top each cookie with Oat flakes
6. Bake for 20 minutes

Hoff Thoughts:  If fat is not a concern, mix in 1/2 cup Macadamia nut pieces along with the Pineapple.  I called these Fruit Cookies, because while experimenting, I found that just about any pie filling worked in place of the Pineapple -  Strawberry, Blueberry, etc.
