CHOCOLATE CHIP WALNUT COOKIES

CHOCOLATE CHIP WALNUT COOKIES

Preparation time:  20 minutes

Yield: 4-dozen

1-cup maple syrup

1/4-cup coconut oil

2-teaspoons vanilla extract

1/3-cup ground flaxseed

1/3-cup water

2-cups walnut flour

2-cups oat flour

1-cup whole-wheat flour

1-teaspoon baking soda

                                          1/2-teaspoon salt

                                          3/4-cup chocolate chips

Make walnut flour in a blender by pulsing the walnuts.  Oatmeal pulsed in a blender becomes oat flour. 

In a standing mixer, combine the flaxseed and wet ingredients.   

Whisk together the dry ingredients in a large bowl. 

Add the dry ingredients to the wet and mix until uniform.  

 

Place dough in a freezer bag and flatten with a rolling pin.  (This is a time saver.) 

Freeze dough for 10 minutes. 

Remove from freezer.

Cut away the freezer bag and divide dough into the same size portions.

Dough can be rolled, smashed to form a patty, or left in a rectangular shape.

Place on a parchment baking sheet or a silicone pad. 

Bake the cookies at 350 degrees for 25 minutes.
