Stir in wet ingredients. Let sit for 10 minutes while heating oven to 350 degrees. The flax will soften with the liquids and hold the cookie together. The cookies do not raise much, so press them down a bit to cook evenly. Bake for 10-15 minutes. Makes about 36-40 cookies. NOTE: Good additions - Diced apples, shredded carrots, coconut, walnuts or pecans. Return to top Orange French Toast![]() 3 eggs

Granola![]() 4-1/2 cups rolled oats
3/4 cup shelled sunflower seeds 1/2 cup flaxseed 3/4 cup sliced almonds 3/4 cup slivered almonds 3/4 cup chopped pecans 2 Tbsp cinnamon 1-1/4 cup pure maple syrup 3 Tbsp coconut oil, melted 1 cup coconut chips Place rack in center of oven; preheat oven to 325E. Combine oats, sunflower seeds, flaxseed, nuts, and cinnamon. Add maple syrup and oil and stir well to thoroughly combine. Spread on cookie sheet and bake about 20 minutes. Stir and return to oven for about 15 minutes or until golden brown. Burns easily -- watch closely and stir if needed. Remove from oven; immediately stir in coconut chips. When cool, place in airtight container. Will store 1 month in cupboard or 6 months in freezer. Thaws quickly. NOTE: Do not add dried fruits before baking. They will become very CRUNCHY. I like to add dried fruits to my bowl when eating. That way I can change the fruit whenever I want. NOTE: This granola is also delicious when cooked as a hot cereal. We sometimes mix half granola and half 6-grain cereal. Add some dried fruits and milk and it will hold you until lunchtime. Return to top Brown Rice Heaven![]() 1 cup quinoa (black, red or white)
