When I was creating this gluten-free cookie recipe, I wanted to keep it as healthy as possible, by keeping the sugar low and protein high, and still keep the cookie tasting delicious. I combined unsweetened roasted almond butter with butter and used coconut sugar to reduce blood sugar spikes. This oatmeal & almond butter cookie contains less than 3 grams of sugar and approximately 2.5 grams of protein per cookie. I have not added raisins, but if you wish, add 1/2 cup sulphite-free raisins
