FOR THE COOKIES:
1 cup Brown Rice Flour
1/2 cups Rolled Oats
1/4 cups Chopped Almonds
2 Tablespoons Chia Seeds
1 teaspoon Sea Salt
1/2 teaspoons Cinnamon
1/2 teaspoons Baking Soda
1 whole Egg
1/4 cups Coconut Sugar
1/4 cups Coconut Oil, Melted And Cooled
3 Tablespoons Maple Syrup
1 whole Lemon, Zest And Juice
FOR THE FILLING:
4 ounces, weight Cream Cheese
1/4 cups 2% Greek Yogurt
2 Tablespoons Pure Honey

1
In a large mixing bowl, combine dry ingredients. Set aside.
2
In a small bowl, whisk wet ingredientse. Pour wet into dry and stir until incorporated. Refrigerate mixture for 30-60 minutes.
3
Preheat oven to 350u00b0F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
4
Scoop tablespoon-size portions of the dough and roll into balls. Lightly flatten each ball to make it about 1/2 inch tall and distribute over the parchment paper, leaving about 1 inch between each cookie.
5
Bake for 11-12 minutes, or until lightly golden brown and just firm when touched. Remove from oven and cool completely on a cooling rack.
6
In the meantime, prepare Greek yogurt-cream cheese filling by whipping Greek yogurt and cream cheese in a hand mixer or stand mixer (whichever you have), slowly adding honey while mixing. Whip for about 3 minutes, or until light and fluffy. You can add more honey to sweeten more if you prefer.
7
When ready to assemble, place some filling on the flat side of a cookie. Sandwich with another cookie, flat side facing the filling as well. Repeat with remaining cookies and filling.

Notes:
9
I tried making the cookies vegan by replacing the egg with 2 flax eggs, but they came out too crumbly. If you must make them vegan, I recommend using whole wheat or white flour instead of the brown rice, so that the gluten acts as a stronger binding agent in addition to the flax eggs.
10
Chia seeds can be replaced for poppy seeds if you prefer.

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Preheat the oven fully and bake on the middle rack for the most even results.
Check for doneness a few minutes early — a toothpick in the center should come out with just a few moist crumbs.
Let it cool before slicing so it sets properly and holds its shape.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Swap the honey for maple syrup or agave for a slightly different but equally rich sweetness.
Brown sugar instead of white sugar adds a deeper, more caramel-like flavor.
Leave out the nuts to make it nut-free, or swap in seeds for a similar crunch.
A good 1:1 gluten-free flour blend works well if you need a gluten-free version.
Coconut cream is a reliable plant-based alternative to dairy cream.
