cherry lime cookies (vegan & gluten-free) Something Vegan

RECIPE
Cookies:
2 1/2 cups gluten-free oat flour
2/3 cup organic sugar
1 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
1/3 cup unsweetened black cherry juice
3 Tbsp. oil (vegetable, canola or light olive)
1 tsp. vanilla extract
A few drops of vegan red food coloring (optional)
1/3 cup dried cherries, chopped
Frosting:
2 1/2 cups organic powdered sugar
2 Tbsp. vegan margarine, at room temperature
2 Tbsp. fresh lime juice
1/2 Tbsp. lime zest (I used one small lime to get enough zest and juice)
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. To a bowl, add oat flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Stir well. Add cherry juice, oil, vanilla, and red food coloring. Stir well. Add dried cherries, and stir in. Use a small cookie scoop to scoop dough onto an ungreased cookie sheet, and bake 13- 15 minutes. Transfer the cookies to a cooling rack to cool. To make the frosting: to a bowl, add powdered sugar, and vegan margarine. Use a hand mixer to mix well. Add lime juice, and lime zest. Mix until smooth and fluffy. Pipe or spread the frosting onto the cooled cookies. Makes about 18 cookies.
