Chocolate and brown top millet cookies

by Kam

My loved ones at home have the biggest sweet tooth you can imagine so I’m constantly on the lookout for healthy sweet treats that can be enjoyed without worrying that my daughter will end up in a sugar coma. 🙂 In such a case cookies come in handy. At least I find that they’re made quickly and can be enjoyed as a snack in between without any fuss. And after all who doesn’t like cookies?! These chocolate chip cookies are made with brown top millet flour that contains vast amounts of good nutrients – magnesium, iron and silicium just to name a few and of course raw chocolate. I also added whole spelt flour to the batter so these little cookies are vegan and sugar-free nutrients bombs.

They’re done in 30 minutes and if they survive the cool down time taste amazing with a cup of coffee or tea. If you haven’t tried brown top millet flour give it a try. It’s mostly available in health food stores.
