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

An easy way to make tapioca flour is by grinding old fashion pearl tapioca in a coffee

grinder (see the "Glossary of Ingredients" for more information on making or buying tapioca

flour)

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

DRY INGREDIENTS

or walnut oil or canola oil)

/ cups brown rice flour (or spelt flour)

/ cup millet flour (or spelt flour)

/ cup sorghum flour

/ cup dried cranberries

tablespoons pumpkin seeds ground

tablespoons poppy seeds ground

/ cup ground flax seed

WET INGREDIENTS

/ cup brown rice syrup

/ cup maple syrup

tablespoons safflower oil

(or walnut oil or canola oil)

tablespoons tapioca flour

tablespoons Sucanat sugar

(

or granulated sugar)

tablespoons NonHydrogenated Vegetable Oil Spread

tablespoon vanilla extract

/ teaspoon sea salt

teaspoons baking powder (double acting)

tablespoons Grand Marnier

teaspoon orange zest chopped

tablespoons vegetable shortening nonhydrogenated

(

or unrefined coconut oil or safflower 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 shortening (or oil) into flour mixture (using a fork and a knife) Add

the dried cranberries

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
