No-Bake Coconut Oil Flaxseed Cookies

Photo by recipe author

These are a 3 ingredient, 5-minute, no-bake wonder! They’re healthy as cookies go; filled with good fats, filling yet light, not too sweet but sweet enough…I really enjoy them!

Servings: 4 cookies
Preparation Time: 5 minutes

1 cup flax seeds
2 tablespoons coconut oil
1/4 cup maple syrup

Grind flax seeds in a food processor or blender. (I used toasted flax which will gave the cookies a slight peanut buttery flavor, even though there’s no actual PB in the recipe).

Add remaining ingredients except raisins. Blend/Grind Again

Take out and mold into 4 cookies

Optional: Drizzle with syrup and garnish with raisins!

Other options include: garnishing with nuts, fresh or dried fruit, chocolate or carob chips, nut butter, cashew cream, add a teaspoon of vanilla extract to the batch, you name it, go for it…

And if you make a double-batch, they wrap up realllly well for out-n-about snacks. Enjoy!

Mine are “forming” in the fridge, but already I love the nutty taste of the toasted flax seed!

Hi Everyone…These are so easy and they are Vegan and Gluten and Soy-Free, too.  That’s important to mention for some folks :)
