Guest guest Posted February 3, 2010 Report Share Posted February 3, 2010 Wed, 3 Feb 2010 09:21:58 +0000 To: Subject: Digest Number 1613 Came up with a recipe for a almond meal cookie thingy that is so damn good! Any food that is processed (corn meal vs corn on the cob) metabolizes faster, but this cookie thingy has enough fiber and such a small amount of agave and butter that there is no sugar rush at all. It's so heathy it could be a breakfast food. Took me about 15 minutes to make. The main ingredients are rolled oats and almonds: 1 cup Almond meal (ground raw almonds, including skin. Trader Joes is really good and really cheap) 2 cups rolled oats (organic) Grind the oats in a food processor until a very course flour. (about 30 seconds) 1/4 cup unground oats 1/4 cup of whole wheat flour 1/2 teaspoon salt ( I use seasalt) 1 teaspoon cinnamon 1 teaspoon baking powder Mix all the dry quickly in the food processor 1/4 cup of agave 1/4 cup of honey 1/4 cup sunflower oil. Coconut oil would be good too. I used about 2 tablespoons of (organic) butter. 1 egg Mix wet ingredients in bowl, add to dry. Pulse until mixed. spoon or roll -- place on cookie pan. Bake in preheated oven at 350 degrees for about 10 minutes. Really good! You can put a bit of only fruit organic preserve on it. Or some poached pears. I may have used even less agave/honey -- maybe 1/3rd cup total. This is the original recipe, which I changed to the above. Haven't tried the exact recipe yet, but this is the inspiration: http://a2zvegetariancuisine.blogspot.com/2009/06/oats-almond-meal- cookies-with.html It's really fun to come up with great healthy and delicious food that is super good for you.
