Peanut Butter Apricot Cookies image

I made these to grab as a healthy and YUMMY breakfast. I've gotten into the habit of dippng dried apricots in peanut butter; this is my portable version! They can also be made vegan by using an egg substitute for the eggs.

Time 30m

Yield 9 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

3/4 cup whole wheat flour
1/4 cup flax seed meal
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon cardamom
1 cup brown sugar
4 tablespoons peanut butter
1 tablespoon tahini
2 eggs (or equivalent egg sub. for vegan cookies)
1 cup dried apricot (cut into smaller chunks)
1/2 cup oats

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Grease a cookie sheet and line it with parchment paper.
  • Whisk together dry ingredients.
  • Blend wet ingredients until as close to smooth as possible.
  • Mix dry ingredients with the wet mixture until fully incorporated. The batter will be thick and sticky, so it would probably be easiest to do this with a fork or mixing spoon.
  • Stir in the oats and apricots.
  • Form into balls and flatten onto parchment paper. Again, this is easier to do with wet hands.
  • Bake for about 15 to 20 minutes or until the tops look golden (don't wait for them to brown or they will be too hard when they cool).
  • To store (and for transportation purposes), I like to wrap each cookie in plastic wrap. Voila! Bakery-style!
