(just ate these with a side of chocolate coconut yogurt + organic blueberries for dinner and i’m reaaaally happy about it.)finally cool(er) in arizona and we are here for it!
these were so easy and delicious. i love keeping things like this in the fridge that taste like a treat but ground and nourish my body + are easy on digestion. they are also so satisfying, and brain fuel at is best!
mix:
2/3 c raw macadamia nut butter
1/4 c melted organic coconut oil or vanilla bean ghee
1/3 c organic pumpkin purée
vanilla stevia to taste (you’ll want the batter to taste a bit sweeter than you’d like the cookies to taste)
in a separate bowl mix:
1/2 c organic coconut flour (sub 1/2 of this for vanilla collagen powder to give these a protein upgrade)
1/2 t cinnamon
1/4 t cloves
1/4 t ginger
1/4 t nutmeg
1/4 t vanilla bean powder
-combine the two mixtures well and if needed, add a little coconut flour at a time until you get a malleable dough that isn’t too sticky.
-roll into balls (helps to have slightly wet hands) and press down a bit on a parchment lined tray. option to top with pumpkin seeds, chocolate chips, or cacao nibs. chill a few hours until firm and enjoy with your favorite cup of nut milk or homemade hot coco.
-oh, and you can go ahead and double the recipe to freeze some for later (:
did you know...
ginger, cinnamon & nutmeg are carminative spices, meaning they help reduce bloating and stimulate digestive strength. a much needed aid this time of year when a lot of foods around us cause digestive upset!
swap your regular pumpkin cookies for these from time to time & enjoy the best of health this winter.
