Chocolate, Date & Almond Cookies, can't go wrong when you mention chocolate! :-) These little babies are made with the #grainfreebakingmix so they are #grainfree #glutenfree #dairyfree and #vegan. I'm not a big one for using store bought #chocchips so to make up of it I add a soft fruit for #chewy and a #nut for #crunchy. Works a treat and I feels so much more in line with our #cleaneating ethos. Makes: 18 Ingredients: 1 cup @luvinglifewholefoods Baking mix 1/2 cup rolled oats 1/2 cup dried coconut 1 cup pitted dates - diced 1/2 cup almonds - chopped into pieces (I used activated almonds) 1 tsp ground cinnamon 1 tbs mesquite 1 tsp maca 2 large tbs cacao powder 2 large tbs coconut oil 1/4 cup almond milk 3 tbs coconut yoghurt + extra if needed Preparation: Preheat oven to 180 degrees Celsius and line a baking tray with non stick paper or a teflex sheet. Add all dry ingredients to a large mixing bowl and stir to combine. Add the oil, milk and yoghurt then stir through with a spoon or get into it with your fingertips to create a thick sticky dough. If it’s too dry add more yoghurt. Divide intro 18 balls then flatten them out evenly on the baking trays. Bake for approx 13 minutes then allow to cool before devouring. They store well in the fridge. NOTES: To chop and dice the dates and almond I pulsed them in my blender a few times. Mesquite and maca are optional but not only do they add nutrition they also add great flavour. My oven cooks the top layer of cookies much faster then that bottom so I have to leave it in longer. All ovens are different so you may have to tweak the baking time to suit your. I highly recommend purchasing the PDF for the baking mix. I use it for all of my baking and it makes it so much quicker and easier. Theres no excuse for not being able to create a healthy alternative treat. ;-) best of all it’s only $1.25 and comes with extra recipes, tips and hints. #plantbased #paleo #veganfoodshare #whatveganseat #govegan #veganfoodporn #crueltyfree #veganism #vegansofinstagram #vegetarian #buzzfeast #buzzfeedvegan #foodgawker #veganlife #govegan #veganfoodporn #paleo #primal
