Who says healthy treats need to be complicated?
These delicious cookies are proof that sometimes less really is more!
Made with just three simple ingredients - nutrient-rich pumpkin seeds, naturally sweet maple syrup and a touch of vanilla essence - they are incredibly easy to prepare and make a beautiful wholesome snack.
Pumpkin seeds are packed with plant-based protein, healthy fats, Vitamin E, magnesium and zinc, supporting everything from energy production to immune health.
No flour, no refined sugar and no long list of ingredients! Just simple, nourishing goodness that the whole family can enjoy!
Ingredients:
1 ½ cup of pumpkin seeds
¼ cup maple syrup
1 teaspoon vanilla essence
Then…
Ghee for shaping
Choc chips (optional)
Method:
Grind the pumpkin seeds into fine pieces using a blender or Ninja type appliance (but don’t over blend!)
Add everything to a bowl and mix
Put some ghee on your hands to help the mixture stick
Shape into cookies
Bake at 180 degrees for 12 minutes but don’t over bake (just until lightly golden but still soft)
Then apply melted chocolate chips to the tops if you wish (it’s absolutely delicious)
