Made these this morning with dried apricots, pumpkin, sunflower, chia seeds and chopped almonds. So so good. Made these into bite sized cookies (1Tbs) and baked for 13 min. Made 30 cookies! Love them
Sounds delish! Thank you!
Our family loved these… they stayed crispy and were delicious! Perfect for a healthy afternoon snack.
Awesome
Quick, easy and sooo delicious! I just ate 3 haha
sweet
Could you do the recipe with a chia egg rather than flax egg or would it not work the same? Thanks
I just made these and they are so good, even my no cookie eater husband likes them! We use sunflower and pepitas seeds, and walnuts along with the chocolate chips. I measured and weighted my cups and they seemed to be smaller than yours as 1 cup of almond flour was less than 100 grams for me. Definitely a recipe I will be making for gatherings and work meetings. Thank you!
These look amazing! Can you freeze them? I have no willpower and will eat them all if my kids don’t like them. Thanks!
Never mind! I just read that yes, you can freeze these.
What other kind of flour would you recommend. I cannot eat almonds or almond flour. Will coconut flour work just as well?
Coconut flour needs 4-5 times the moisture so it won’t work. You can use some regular flour (half the amount of almond flour) and a tbsp of coconut flour
I take it coconut flour can not be substituted? Tried twice and they fell apart. Crumbled all over.
Yes, they will do exactly that. Coconut flour needs 10 times more moisture than almond flour.
Yum so delicious, I would love to make recipes as like you. This looks so amazing and delicious also I would love to share this blog with my friends.
I just made a double batch of these cookies and they are delicious, a great substitution for expensive packaged breakfast cookies/bars. I didn’t have almond butter so I had to sub peanut butter. I did double the seeds and used less oats and I added 1/4 cup of chopped dried cranberries. The seeds I used were just what I had on hand chia, peptita, pecan and sunflower (toasted the last three before I added them to the mix) 18 min in the oven worked for me. Thanks for another delicious recipe.
