CHOCOLATE CHIA COOKIES




Again another great discovery from Ella's delicious blog. I've been completely obsessed with these crunchy, nutty cookies since I tried them for the first time. I keep making a batch after another.

You need:

  • 1 cup of ground almonds
  • 1 cup of ground hazelnuts
  • 1 cup of buckwheat flour
  • 6-8 pitted medjool dates
  • 1/2 cup of maple syrup
  • 1/3 cup of water
  • 3 tablespoons of raw cacao powder
  • 3 tbs of chia seeds
  • 4 tbs of coconut oil

Mix almonds, hazelnuts, buckwheat flour, cacao powder and chia seeds in a bowl. Put dates, maple syrup, water and coconut oil in a blender and blend until smooth. Mix together with the dry ingredients.  Shape dough into little balls, press them between your hands and place on a baking tray. Bake 15-20 minutes in 180C degrees.

    1. Hei, chia-siemenia taitavat olla ilman sen kummempaa suomennosta, loytyy ainakin ruohonjuuresta ja uskoisin muistakin luontaistuoteliikkeista, buckwheat flour on tattarijauhoa, sita saa varmasti ihan tavallisista ruokakaupoista. :-)
