Mouthwatering Muesli Cookies

I have returned home, cleansed of blood and debris (I was shooting a zombie film), and thought a nice way to say hello again here would be to offer sweets. So here's a treat for all of ya'll who are still reading/subscribing/feeding good things to the people you love.



Mouthwatering Muesli Cookies
(makes about 24)

1 cup sweet sorghum flour
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
2 eggs
3/4 cup organic brown sugar
1/2 cup coconut oil, melted
1.25 cups muesli (I used Trader Joe's Fat Free Blueberry Muesli, which is awesome. It has dried blueberries, raisins, currants, and apples in it and is made with whole rolled barley flakes and whole rolled rye flakes.)
~1/4 cup water

Set oven to 375F.

Stir the melted coconut oil, sugar, and vanilla extract together, then beat in two eggs. Add flour and stir. Fold in muesli. Add water little by little until the consistency is a little looser. The batter looked a little runny when I put it onto the cookie sheets (covered in parchment paper like always) but they fluffed up nicely in the oven.

Bake for 10-15 minutes. Longer if you like them a little crispier. Please note that they continue to become crispier as they cool, as well.

These are so tasty, and they make your kitchen (and the rest of your house) smell delectable. :)

Go on! Have a peace!
