I began this website so that I could keep track of my journey’s recipes for the most part. I cook and prepare foods EVERYDAY! So, you would think that I would have a ton of recipes posted already. But I have been slacking in this task. Photos of many of the foods I do prepare can be found at Instagram. But I am going to try to do better.
Today I wanted something crunchy..and didn’t want to wait on the dehydrator (I did that yesterday when I made kale chips.) So today I’m baking Almond Flour Cookies in the oven.
I think I should call these “Honey Almond Cookies”. The Honey was easily recognizable. One recipe I found used maple syrup in place of honey. I think that my use of honey and the addition of ground flax seed made these cookies crunchy on the edges, but chewy on the inside. Also, they could probably have been crunchy if flattened more than you see in the photo below.
