I may even go as far as to say that these are the tastiest things I’ve ever made…
I have to be honest, I wasn’t sure if it would even work but oh dear lord they do! So simple; literally took 5 minutes, 1 spoon, 1 saucepan and a cup, and to make it even more exciting, there is no refined sugar, dairy or gluten and totally vegan. It makes giving sweet treats to kids easier. Braxton is 13 months and has never had refined sugar and I want to keep it like that. If he always has treats that taste this good, hopefully he’ll never feel the need to binge on the rubbish stuff 🙂
Cacao is also a great plant-based protein which is essential for babies, as well as the essential fatty acids in the coconut oil.
Basically, MAKE THESE!
I used Biona coconut oil, coconut palm sugar and cashew butter as I prefer their ingredients so use them wherever I can <3
Ingredients
3 tbsp coconut oil
1 tbsp coconut palm sugar
3 tbsp maple syrup
2 tbsp almond milk
1.5 tbsp cacao powder
4 tbsp cashew butter
1 cup organic rolled oats
Method
Heat all the ingredients except the cashew butter and oats in a pan, on a low heat, very gently until combined.
Once melted, turn off the heat and stir in the cashew butter and keep stirring until fully incorporated.
Now add the oats and stir until totally mixed into the mixture.
Wait until it’s cooler, then spoon a tbsp. full onto a plate that has baking paper on and press into cookie shapes.
Leave to cool then once cool put in the fridge for an hour until set.
Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week.
Love and health,
Lauren
