Ingredients
- 1 cup buckwheat flour
- 3/4 cup almond flour or grind whole almonds in food processor
- 1/4 cup chia seeds*
- 1/4 cup goji berries or dried cranberries soak in boiling water for 10 minutes to plump them up, discard water
- 1/2 cup shredded coconut
- 2 tbsp ground cinnamon
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1/2 cup sunflower seeds
- 2 eggs whisked (egg-free option see below)*
- 3/4 cup melted coconut oil
- 1/4 - 1/3 dark cup maple syrup
- 2 tbsp (30 mL) blackstrap molasses
- 1 tsp (5 mL) pure vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips optional, but highly recommended
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350F (180C). Grease a baking sheet with coconut oil or line with parchment paper.
- Combine all the dry ingredients in a large bowl. Combine all the wet ingredients in a large bowl. Pour the wet into the dry and stir until well combined but do not over stir.
- Place by large spoonfuls onto the baking sheet and bake for 12-14 minutes.
- Recipe Tip: If you have trouble digesting oats or you are looking for a change, you can make this with 1 cup (250 mL) of quinoa flakes instead of oats.
Notes
*Egg-free option :
To the 1/4 cup chia seeds measurement, add 1/2 cup water.
In a small bowl, combine chia seeds and water. Let sit for a few minutes to become gelatinous. If it's too thick, add a few more tablespoons of water. Add this mixture to the large bowl with wet mixture. These chia seeds are NOT in addition to what the recipe calls for above.
