Made my famous quinoa cookies the other night for some friends and they loved them! No guilt because their is no sugar and gluten-free too! Try them for yourself!
1/2 cup Brown Rice Syrup or Raw Blue Agave
1/3 cup Coconut Crystals
1/2 cup Coconut Butter
1/2 tsp Vanilla
1-2 Eggs(optional)
1/2 cup Almond Meal Flour (can substitute other gluten free flours instead of tapioca or almond meal like all purpose baking flour, or Sorghum flour which is a sweet white flour) Just use 1 cup total of flours.
1/2 cup Tapioca Flour
3/4 cup Quinoa Flakes
1 tsp Baking Soda
1/4 tsp Salt
1/2 cup Raw Walnuts( or other nuts)
1/2 cup Organic Raisins(optional)
(can add goji berries if you like too!)
Heat oven to 350 degrees. Beat brown rice syrup, coconut crystals, coconut butter, and vanilla in medium bowl until creamy. 1-2 eggs added for creamier mix which creates flatter, bigger cookies. Combine Almond Meal Flour, Tapioca Flour, Quinoa Flakes, Baking Soda and salt in small bowl. Add to mixture and beat until well blended. Then add nuts and raisins. Drop rounded balls on lightly greased cookie sheet. Bake 10 to 15 minutes or until lightly browned. Cool one min before removing from cookie sheet. Yields over 1 dozen cookies. Everyone who tries these cookies always asks for the recipe!:)
