Servings: persons

1/3 cup red quinoa
2 tablespoons flaxseeds
1/2 cup oat flour
1/4 cup oat germ
1/2 cup whole oats
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 cup chopped pecans
1/2 cup shredded unsweetened coconut
1 1/2 cups shredded carrots
2 teaspoons fresh grated ginger
1/2 cup honey
1/4 cup olive oil

1
Mix quinoa and flaxseeds, grind in a blender until it has coarse meal consistency. I tried using a mini food processor but the quinoa seeds are too small and after pulsing they remained intact. The blender was perfect. Feel free to use quinoa flour, I can barely find quinoa here so I had to make my own. Same with the oat flour, I put the oats in the blender until it had flour consistency [please note the recipe calls for oat flour and whole oats].
2
Mix quinoa, flax seeds, oat flour, oat germ, whole oats, baking powder, salt, pecans, cinnamon and shredded coconut.
3
In a separate bowl, mix honey, olive oil, ginger and carrots.
4
Mix dry and wet ingredients with a spatula.
5
Use a cookie scoop to make even sized cookies, put them 1 inch apart from each other.
6
Flatten the cookies with your fingers to give them cookie shape.
7
Bake at 250F for 15-20 min. I let a batch in the oven for 30 minutes and they had toasted flavor and firmer consistency.
8
Enjoy!
