Instructions
Flax Egg -

Wet Ingredients -
- In a large bowl add the flax egg, almond butter, maple syrup and vanilla extract. Mix it well till it is smooth and lump free.
Making the cookie dough -
- Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients. Mix it well. At this point you can taste the dough for sweetness and if needed add little more maple syrup.
- Add the chocolate chips, cranberry and sunflower seeds and gently fold in. If the dough is very sticky, place it in the refrigerator for few minutes.
- Using an ice scream scooper, take some of the dough and roll to form a round shape. Repeat with the remaining dough and place the cookie dough about one inch a apart. I got 12 cookies.
- Flatten the cookie dough with the back of a spoon (these cookies will not spread)
Baking -
- Bake the cookies in the pre heated oven at 350 F or 175 C for 16-19 minutes. ( mine where ready by 18 minutes)
- Remove the cookies and place them on a wire rack to cool completely.
- Enjoy these vegan cookies for breakfast, snack, post work out or as a dessert.
Notes
