Best Ever Oaty Chocolate Chip Cookies

February 16, 2020 by theorganicspoon 1 Comment

These are a variation on my usual oat cookies like the lactation cookies. I used the base recipe and added chocolate chips because, when discussing what to bake this afternoon, Braxton decided he wanted chocolate chip cookies. You really can use this recipe and add anything you like, like ginger or chai spices. They’re so…

Nourishing Lactation Cookies

August 27, 2018 by theorganicspoon 1 Comment

And so the nesting continues… Following on from my Lactation Tea post last week where I promised some lactation cookies, here they are! I’m making these, along with my Breastfeeding Flapjacks, to freeze in preparation for baby number 2, as I sure as hell won’t have time to make any once the little one arrives!…

Chocolate Raisin Cookies

June 29, 2018 by theorganicspoon Leave a Comment

I do love a cookie, me. There’s nothing like a cookie with a cup of tea, and they’re just so easy to reach for in the afternoon when that dip starts happening. They’re also great for baby led weaning (just omit the raisins) and as a snack for those peckish kids who seem to eat…

Buckwheat Chocolate Chip Cookies

June 19, 2018 by theorganicspoon Leave a Comment

Always one to attempt a new chocolate chip cookie, I deviated from the foolproof recipe I felt confident enough to label Best Ever Chocolate Chip Cookies, which are made with oats, and I made these, with buckwheat flour. If I’m honest, I still feel you can’t get that real moistness with anything other than oats,…

Coconut & Sultana Peanut Butter Cookies

May 23, 2018 by theorganicspoon Leave a Comment

This was one of those recipes I was sure was set to be a failure. I just wanted to throw something together to make some healthy cookies for the week, but I really fancied something different to the other cookies on the blog. Thankfully (because I HATE wasting ingredients) they turned out scrumptious, despite my…

Easy Chia Raisin Cookies

March 16, 2018 by theorganicspoon Leave a Comment

3pm. Rainy day. Cup of tea. Cookie. Have I painted enough of a picture for you? There really is nothing better than a biscuit with a cup of tea come the afternoon if you’re having one of those days (let’s try not to do it every day, healthy or not!) but of course we want…

Chocolate-Dipped Peanut Butter Cookies

April 1, 2017 by theorganicspoon Leave a Comment

Braxton is leaving his childminder this week and starting nursery – eek!! I didn’t know what to get the lovely ladies at the childminder so decided to make them some nice things and package them nicely as a thank you. I made them these and some chocolate truffles – I hope they like them and…

Vegan Peanut Butter Breakfast Cookies

December 5, 2016 by theorganicspoon Leave a Comment

Crunchy, yet slightly gooey peanut butter cookies. What could be better? Braxton has decided he’s on hunger strike at the moment so I’m trying to find just anything that he’ll eat and I made these in the hope that he’d like them and he did, he was very happy. Now just to get him to…

Golden Linseed Oat Cookies – Full of Omega-3 and Great for Baby Led Weaning

October 12, 2016 by theorganicspoon Leave a Comment

As many of you know by now, I usually make sure to make a batch of something sweet but healthy once a week (ish!) so that I don’t have to give Braxton anything processed or filled with sugar. I don’t give him sweet things every day (apart from fruit), but I do like to give…

Best Ever Chocolate Chip Cookies

April 26, 2016 by theorganicspoon 3 Comments

These need very little introduction! They are by far the best cookies I’ve ever made and I honestly just threw the ingredients together as I was in such a rush so it was hard for me to remember the exact measurements! They are egg, soya, gluten, dairy and sugar free (depending on what chocolate chips…
