Today it felt hard motivating myself to write. Before I sat down I quickly threw together those seven ingredients listed below, turning them into yet another batch of oatmeal coconut cookies, just to eat one of the freshly baked cookies straight out of the oven. I can\u2018t think of a better way to get into cookie mode. Also, when I tested this recipe a week ago I myself was a little surprised how delicious these cookies actually turned out to be. Therefore I needed some kind of reassurance that these cookies weren\u2018t too good to be true or rather just a stroke of luck. \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n<p>I found this recipe on Crash Test Mummy. It was the only recipe I found for oatmeal cookies low in fructose that looked worth giving it a try. Crash Test Mummy calls them ANZAC Cookies. Most of you native English speaking readers have probably heard this term before, but for me ANZAC didn&#8217;t ring a bell. It was only after a short search via Wikipedia that I found out what the abbreviation stands for &#8220;Australian and New Zealand Army Corps&#8221; and that this type of cookies are usually baked around the end of April to celebrate ANZAC Day and remember the fallen troops during World War I. I made those cookies because the recipe sounded delicious. Only now, when re-reading the same Wikipedia article did I notice that the same troops fought in a city called Gallipoli, which is called \u00c7anakkale today and lies, guess what, in Turkey. I love coincidences.\u00a0<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>The bottom line for these oatmeal coconut cookies is that they are addictive. Coconut is naturally low in fructose; it is generally tolerated well by people who suffer from fructose malabsorption, while adding a nice, sweet touch to baked goods. In any case, these cookies now claim the number one spot on my list of favourite cookies, formerly held by the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.frusano.com\/Cookies\/Cookies-gluten-free-II\/rice-coconut-cookies::673:58.html\" target=\"_blank\">rice coconut cookies from Werz<\/a>. The ones from Werz are also quite tasty but quite dry at the same time.

Ich konnte mich nicht dazu aufraffen, diesen Beitrag zu schreiben ohne vorher noch einmal schnell die sieben unten aufgelisteten Zutaten zusammenzuwerfen, um dann beim Schreiben ein paar Kekse zu mampfen. Als ich dieses Rezept ausprobiert habe, war ich selbst ein bisschen \u00fcberrascht wie unfassbar lecker diese Kekse eigentlich sind. Ich musste mich also vergewissern, ob der Geschmack, mit dem diese Kekse mir in Erinnerung geblieben sind, nicht doch blo\u00df Einbildung war. \ud83d\ude09 \u2026<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1265,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_genesis_hide_title":false,"_genesis_hide_breadcrumbs":false,"_genesis_hide_singular_image":false,"_genesis_hide_footer_widgets":false,"_genesis_custom_body_class":"","_genesis_custom_post_class":"","_genesis_layout":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[3,145],"tags":[14,30,43,44,45,48,49,79],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/fructopia.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/426"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/fructopia.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/fructopia.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fructopia.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fructopia.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=426"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/fructopia.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/426\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fructopia.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1265"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/fructopia.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=426"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fructopia.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=426"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fructopia.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=426"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
