Wheat Germ Cookies
Ingredients
- 1 1⁄2 c stone ground wheat flouer
- 1 1⁄2 c toasted wheat germ
- 1 c quick cooking oats
- 1 c turbinado (packed raw sugar)
- 2 t baking powder
- 1 t salt
- 1⁄2 c unsweatened applesauce
- 1⁄2 c canola oil
- 2 T milled flaxseed
- 6 T water
- 1 c minature chocolate chips
- 1⁄2 c nuts (optional)
Instructions
First you will need to mix your flax and water in a small bowl and set it aside. In a lg mixing bowl mix the first 6 ingredients lightly. Then you will add the applesauce, oil, and flax mixture. again mix lightly. Toss in your (dark) chocolate chips and nuts. The mixture will be slightly more crumbly than a normal cookie recipe. Drop by teaspoonfuls 2 inches apart. Bake at 350 for 10-12 min.
yield- 4 dozen
Notes
If you don't have any applesauce handy you can peel and core one med size apple. Microwave for 1- 1 1/2 min and mash. it should make a 1/2c.
if you have never made cookies w/ wheat flour, keep in mind that you cannot wait for them to turn golden brown since they are already med brown before you cook them. You will have to wait for the edges to darken and the center to get firm. The good thing is, I took out the egg so even if they are not quite done, you won't give people salmonella.
