The majority of our ingredients will be organic (except for baking soda, sea salt, etc. – but they will be good quality!), and we’lll talk about the benefits of using ingredients such as coconut sugar, flax seeds (as a substitute for eggs), coconut oil, quinoa flour; how to make delicious vegan cookies for the whole family, and more.
Plus, you will take home an assortment of cookies, as well as recipes and tips so that you can make our treats at home.

cranberry millet cookies

These cookies are moist and caky. A nice treat with some mint tea.

Preheat oven to 350° F.

1/2 cup cooked millet

1 cup kamut flour

1/2 cup coconut sugar

2 eggs

1/2 cup organic coconut oil

1 tsp vanilla

1 tsp baking soda

1/4 cup sunflower seeds

1/4 cup dried cranberries (sweetened with juice, not sugar)

In a large bowl, cream the coconut sugar and coconut oil together.
Add the eggs and vanilla and mix together thoroughly.
Add the millet, sunflower seeds and cranberries, combining everything well.

In a separate bowl sift all the dry ingredients together.

In batches, add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients mixing thoroughly.

Form into balls (I use a tablespoon to measure them and keep them uniform in size) and place on a cookie sheet lined with a Silpat or parchment paper.

Flatten slightly with the back of a spoon.

Bake for 10 – 12 minutes.

Makes about 3 dozen.
