How to make
Prepping
- Whisk the egg in a mixing bowl and then slowly add all ingredients to it.
- Use your hands to make the dough.
- Wash and dry your hands and coat them with some melted coconut oil. This will help prevent the dough from sticking to your hands or you could use a pair of serving gloves as well.
- Make small balls of dough and flatten them with your hands.
- Place the cookies at least 1 inch apart on a cookie baking sheet.
- You should be able to make close to 25-30 cookies.
Baking
- Preheat oven to 325 F and bake the cookies for 16 mins.
- Take the cookies out of oven and let them cool for a few minutes.
- Now reduce the oven temperature to 170 F and bake the cookies for another 1 1/2 hours.
- Your batch of healthy cookies is ready. Serve hot with your favorite hot-drink and store the rest for later consumption.
