Oatmeal Carob Cookies
Ingredients:
1 cup raw oats
3T raw oats (reserved)
1 cup raw hazelnuts
¼ cup raw carob powder
1T mesquite powder
½ tsp pink Himalayan salt
½ tsp ground cinnamon
½ tsp non-alcoholic organic vanilla extract
¾ cup well-packed pitted dates
1T agave nectar
Preparation:
Using a food processor, combine 1 cup of raw oats, with the hazelnuts, carob powder, mesquite powder, salt and cinnamon. Mix well. Add the pitted dates and vanilla. Mix until crumbly and sticky. Slowly add the agave by drizzling it into the food processor while mixing. Once mixture appears somewhat cookie-dough like, remove from processor. You can either use a spoon scoop and make round balls or flatten each piece, or you can roll the whole dough out and use cookie cutters. Although this mix does not need refrigeration, during the summer months I advise it so that the cookies aren’t too soft. These cookies are so amazing…the batch was gone in practically a day!
