I have a sweet tooth. The kind that wants dessert... pretty much after every meal :) SO - enter a need for healthy desserts! Here is a recipe adapted from PattyCake that we all adored. And, if you make the cookies tiny enough, you get to enjoy five of them before stopping!
Combine in a bowl:
1 3/4 c spelt flour
3/4 c oats
4 scoops Trader Joe's organic stevia
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
Mix well, separately:
1 c crunchy peanut butter* (the natural stuff - just peanuts and salt!)
1/3 c honey
1 egg
2 tsp vanilla
Slowly add liquid mixture into dry mixture and combine well. Roll small teaspoon sized balls and place on a parchment lined baking sheet. Using a fork, press to cross hatch (wash the fork if it starts to stick). I bake them at 325 degrees for 6 minutes (our oven runs hot!). Watch to make sure the edges just lightly brown, it's easy to overcook these little guys.
*Note: If your dough looks a little dry, your peanut butter may not have as much oil as Trader Joe's peanut butter. Go ahead and add 2-4 tablespoons of grapeseed or melted coconut oil.
Option: If you love cookie dough, just pop them in the freezer and enjoy as needed!
