This week I want to share an insanely yummy cookie recipe that I have from Planet Organic. It is gluten free and can be made for the vegans in your life if you wish. Now, I am not a health food junkie, especially when it comes to baking, but these are seriously so yummy your head will spin. Hope you enjoy!!!!
Cosmic Cookies
Yields 24 cookies
Ingredients
2 1/4 C Quick cooking oats
2 C. Spelt flour
1 C. Sunflower seeds
3/4 C. + 2 T. Pumpkin seeds
1/2 C. Shredded unsweetened coconut
1/4 C. Flax seeds
1 C. Sugar
1 T. Cinnamon
2 1/4 t. Sea salt
1 3/4 C. Dark chocolate chips (Carob chips for vegan)
1 1/4 C. Raisins
1/4 C. Water
1/4 C. Blackstrap molasses
3/4 C. Canola oil
1 C. Soy milk
Method
1. Preheat oven to 350F. Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
2. In a large bowl, combine dry ingredients, everything from oats to raisins. In a separate large bowl combine wet ingredients, everything from water to soy milk. Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients and mix slow at a low speed or by hand until just combined. Do not over mix.
3. Portion cookie dough using a 1/3 C. measure and place onto lined baking trays. Gently flatten and shape cookies before baking. Bake for 24 minutes or until lightly browned.
They are huge, they are addictive...but they are healthy, so it is alright to eat a few. They also freeze really well, so if you are lacking some willpower pop a bag into the freezer as soon as they are cool.
Enjoy your weekend!!! Mel :)
