Cinnamon Vanilla Cookies- Healthy

Hey everyone, here are some healthy cookies that should help curb some of those cravings. Don't worry about the fat content, remember it is coming from the almonds. I prefer using clean carb sources such as brown rice/oats because they are complex carbs and provide steady energy stream and I know they are 100% clean.

2 cups Brown rice flour
1 cup Sunflower seed flour or Casein/Whey Protein
1 ½-2 cup Almond flour
1 TSP. salt
1 TBSP. Gluten free baking soda


Instructions:
  • Mash 1 banana in blender
  • Add dry cookie mix into blender
  • Add ½ cup water
  • Blend mix altogether
Consistency of mixture should be very close to cookie dough texture. I decided to add a handful of pecans to the mix as well.

Scoop mixture with TBSP and roll in palms, flatten cookies onto pan.


Topping:
  • Add one TBSP Vanilla extract into measuring cup, add one TSP cinnamon with the vanilla extract. Mix them together, use a brush to coat the top of the cookies on the pan

Cooking:
  • Heat oven to 350F, bake for 12mins. ENJOY :)
