Breakfast Granola Cookies
This looks delicious, I want to make it this week! Is it possible to replace the almond flour with normal cake flour?
Hi Benita. Thank you! 🙂 yes you can <3
What do you mean by 1 flaxseed egg?
Hi Roula. If you are not vegan you can use a normal egg. If you are vegan, you can replace with a flaxseed egg by mixing one tablespoon of flax seeds and three tablespoons of water. You’ll need to grind the flax seeds into a fine powder using a coffee or spice grinder (or use 2 1/2 teaspoons pre-ground), and then you simply whisk in the water until it becomes gelatinous.

Hi Roula. It is a normal substitute to a normal egg. You need to mix one tablespoon ground flaxseed meal with three tablespoons of water. Mix together, and let sit in your fridge for 15 minutes <3
Hi Roula I don’t have a parchment paper for my baking tray. Can I use oil or butter for the mix to not stick?
HI 🙂 yes you can <3
Hi there, these look absolutely scrumptious. Do you have the nutritional value per 1 cookie? Can I substitute the maple syrup with raw honey?
Hi Dee, No this I don’t workout the nutritional value for the recipes that I share <3
Hallo. Very excited to try these! In the recipe instructions: make a bowl shape. What do you mean by that?
Hi Tess. I hope you enjoy this recipe. It is a typo error..ball shape <3
In another post I see you made mention of “chia seed egg” .. how does one get the ratios right of chia seed to water?
Hi. The ratio for 1 egg is 1 tbsp of chia seeds to 2 1/2 tbsp of water <3
