INGREDIENTS

DRY:

• 1 1/2 c. rolled oats, blended into oat flour
• 1/2 c. Urban Hippie Tahitian Vanilla Coconut Granola
• 1/2 c. sliced almonds
• 1/8 c. dried cherries
• 1/4 c. brown sugar
• 4 tbsp. mini dark chocolate chips
• 1 tbsp. sunflower seeds
• 1 tbsp. sesame seeds
• 2 tbsp. chia seeds
• 1/2 tsp. cinnamon
• 1/2 tsp. fine grain sea salt
• 1/2 tsp. baking powder
• 1/2 tsp. baking soda

WET:

• 1 tbsp. ground flax + 2 tbsp. water, mixed together
• 1/4 c. raw almond butter, peanut, or other all-natural butter
• 1/4 c. coconut oil
• 1/4 c. pure maple syrup
• 1 tsp. vanilla  

DIRECTIONS

1. Preheat oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Whisk together the ground flax and water in a small mug and set aside for at least 5 minutes to allow it to become a gel-like consistency.
3. Using a large mixing bowl, whisk together all of the dry ingredients.
4. In a medium-sized bowl, stir together the wet ingredients, including the flax until thoroughly combined.
5. Add the wet mixture on top of the dry mixture and stir well until combined. This will take quite a bit of stirring until all of the dry patches of flour are gone.
6. Portion 2-inch balls of dough onto the baking sheet, spacing them a couple inches apart.
7. Bake cookies for 13-15 minutes until light golden brown on the bottom. Cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack until completely cool. The cookies will break apart easily until cooled, so be careful.
