Also, it should be noted that I literally threw everything in a bowl for this without measuring anything and without looking at any recipe, and I am now trying to guess at the proportions, therefore if anything goes wrong for you, I assume no responsibility.
For all you gluten free people out there, here is a recipe that doesn't taste horrible.
- 1 cup rice chex finely ground
- 1 cup coconut, sweetened or unsweetened, I used sweetened
- 1/4 cup dark brown sugar
- 3 tablespoons to 1/4 cup flax seed
- 1/4 cup peanut butter
- 3 tablespoons honey
- 2 egg whites or one whole egg
They aren't the best "cookies" I've ever had and really they are more like granola bar bites or something, but the girls like them (!!!!!) which was a major shocker. After yesterday's discovery that they will actually eat foods not packed with refined sugar and chocolate, I figured I would try my hand at a good recipe for them. This is what they got!

I think flax seed is gross. You're not the only one!
ReplyDeleteJohn Paul, on the other hand, begs me to pour ground flaxseed in a bowl for him so that he can eat it straight. My theory is that we've raised him on such healthy (or gross) food that he loves that stuff, whereas I was raised on processed junk and that's what I still crave! I have to trick myself into eating healthy food...
I think I actually have all of those ingredients in my pantry. Except the eggs...we keep those in the fridge. Don't worry.
