Need some healthy snack inspiration? Fancy a little something for your afternoon cup of tea but don’t want to spend hours in the kitchen? Then these are for you. 

I whipped them up in only  5 mins and then just chucked them in the oven and they are simple, filling and oh so good for you!

However I do feel a bit of a traitor posting this recipe. You see my beloved husband is super allergic to peanuts so having made a batch of these super simple, incredibly healthy cookies feels a bit treacherous. Luckily I have lots of lockable tupperware boxes that they can live in and maybe I just won’t tell him I’ve been baking…. 

 

These little cookies are also super filling so perfect if you are in a hurry but need something that will give you lasting energy. There is no refined sugar in these (obviously) so you wont end up on a blood sugar spike, and are naturally sweetened meaning they are not sickly sweet. If you want a more sweet taste then feel free to add 1-2 tbsp of honey or maple syrup to the recipe.

 

I have just eaten mine with a glass of homemade almond milk and feel like a happy 4 year old!

If you didn't know already I have a bit of a love-hate relationship with coffee.   I love it, my gut and body historically have hated it. But all in all, I am a total coffee snob and fiend.   And there is nothing that screams Christmas more than a SEASONAL...
