Ginger-Oats Cookies

~FOOD~

During rainy days, I love drinking Chai. Pakodas that normally are the best partner for Chias on  rainy days aren't really healthy to have everyday. One day, I came across a recipe of Cookies and they had a lot of combinations of Cookies. After doing a few tries, I thought of baking Ginger-OAts Cookies to have it with my elaichi wali chai on rainy days. So, here I share the recipe with you. You can make a batch of them and enjoy it with your evening chai.

Things to keep in mind while baking Ginger Oats Cookies

• If you don't have Coconut sugar, you can replace it with 1/3 cup White granulated sugar.
• You can chill the dough overnight also for best results.
• You can vary the quantities of ginger and oats as per your choice.
• Chilling the dough is a very important step.
• After the cookies are baked, it is important to let those cool down or else it will become soggy.
• You can store these cookies in an airtight container for 1 week.
