There are no sugar or eggs in this recipe, yet they are not even missed. I just love these, and they are rather simple to make. It will bake in the same size and shape you make them, so what you see is what you get. The only dried fruit I had on hand was dried Cranberries, so that is what is in the picture, but anything you like will do.

ReplyDeleteIs that sweetened coconut or could I use the Bob's Red Mill unsweetened coconut? I'm going to make these... sometime soon, but probably not tonight. :)
ReplyDeleteYum, can't wait to try this recipe out!
ReplyDeleteJoy: You can use sweetened or unsweetened, whichever you like. This time I used the sweetened kind, but normally I would go for the unsweetened because it's my favorite.
ReplyDeletePaula: How did it go for you?
Tiffany: I hope you like them like we do!
I have been looking for a breakfast cookie recipe for the last couple months, and to find one without eggs or sugar? Heaven! I am making these as soon as I go get some flax seed meal.
