Description

A healthy spin on your favorite childhood cereal! This "Cookie Crisp" Cereal is made with only 7 ingredients and is gluten-free, grain-free, vegan, and ready in just 30 minutes! And if you don't feel like enjoying with milk, they make the perfect low-sugar snack, not to mention they are the most adorable little cookies!


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 2 cups blanched almond flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips (affiliate link)
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1/3 cup maple syrup
  • 1/3 cup almond/nut/seed butter

Instructions

    1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F.
    2. In a large bowl, whisk all the dry ingredients together, then stir in the vanilla, almond butter, and maple syrup until a dough forms.
    3. Place the cookie dough on a piece of parchment paper and then place another piece of parchment paper over top. Roll the dough out until it’s only about 1/2 and inch thick.
    4. With a small circular cookie cutter (mine was a small 1-inch circular cutter) cut out your mini cookies and place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet. You can also use a 1/2 teaspoon and scoop a heaping spoonful of cookie dough and roll them into balls instead.
    5. Repeat the process until all the cookie dough is gone.
    6. Bake for 10-12 minutes.
    7. Snack on them right from the oven or you can actually eat them as cereal with milk! Makes 5 cups of mini cookies (depending on the size of your cookie cutter).
