This makes a crispy/crunchy cookie See variations for making the cookie softer

An easy way to grind flax seeds is in a coffee grinder

DRY INGREDIENTS

(or nonhydrogenated veg shortening)

(or walnut oil or canola oil)

/ cups brown rice flour (or spelt flour)

cup wholegrain teff flour (or spelt flour)

/ cup wholegrain amaranth flour (or spelt flour)

/ cup ground hemp seeds

/ cup walnuts (pieces or halves)

(

sesame seeds)

or half ground flax seeds and half ground

WET INGREDIENTS

/ cup brown rice syrup

/ cup maple syrup

tablespoons tahini

/ cup walnut oil refined (or canola oil)

tablespoon vanilla extract

/ cup carob flour (carob powder)

/ cup sucanat sugar

or granulated sugar)

/ teaspoon sea salt

teaspoons baking powder (double acting)

(

GARNISH

/ cup walnuts (pieces or halves)

tablespoons unrefined coconut oil

Preheat oven to degrees F ( degrees C)

Put parchment paper down on a baking sheet (if you don't have parchment paper you can oil your baking sheet)

Cookies can even stick a little to a nonstick baking sheet which messes up the cookies so I greatly prefer

parchment paper because it always makes for very easy removal

Combine dry ingredients in a large bowl Cut coconut oil (or shortening or oil) into flour mixture (using a fork

and a knife) Mix in the walnuts

Blend wet ingredients in a separate bowl

Add the wet mixture to the dry mixture and mix together It may seem a bit dry at first but once you get all the

ingredients integrated it will form a slightly sticky shapable dough (If other flours besides those being called for

are used additional flour may be needed to create a stiff enough dough The dough is too wet if you can not

form cookies with your hands)

Form balls of dough and place on the cookie sheet (or sheets) They may be a bit crumbly but should bake

together nicely Garnish cookies by pressing the remaining walnuts into the tops of the cookies
