Nutrient-Rich Green Pea Cookies

1. 1

   Preheat oven at 350 F and prepare a cookie sheet with a liner.

2. 2

   In a food processor/grinder combine peas and dates and grind as smooth as possible.

3. 3

   Into a mixing bowl add the peas mixture. Add tofu and mix well with a spoon. Then add almond flour, salt and baking powder and mix well with your hands. A very soft dough-like texture will be formed.

4. 4

   Take a tablespoonful of the dough between your palms and form a round ball then gently flatten it with a small indentation in the middle. Try to even out the flat round cookies as much as possible.

5. 5

   Put the cookies on the cookie sheet and garnish the top of each with a raw almond (one almond on each cookie and press very gently so they stick together).

6. 6

   Put the cookie sheet in the middle rack of the oven and bake for 25-30 minutes or until slightly brown in color. Take pan out of the oven and let the cookies cool down for awhile before serving.
