Use organic when possible for healthcare

• 1 Cup of organic diced Pitted Medjool Dates –  – or use half cup non-organic/half cup organic dates. We use scissors to dice the dates, approximately 10 cuts of each date. The more they are diced the sweeter the cookies so it’s worth the extra time

• 1 Cup of Organic Wholemeal Spelt Flour or plain organic wholemeal
• 3 tablespoons Coconut Flour
• 2 teaspoons Baking Powder
• 3 tablespoons warm-hot water
• 60 mls or ¼ of a cup of Melted Organic Virgin Coconut Oil
• 1 Organic Egg
• 60 mls of Organic Oats Milk or Almond Milk – shake the carton before use

Preheat the oven to 180 degrees –

1. Cut each date small, approximately 10 times. In a cup add the dates and 3 tablespoons hot water, cover the cup to keep the steam in, (We used a small plate to cover the cup), steam for approximately 10 minutes
2. Mix all the dry ingredients including the dates and water, if any left after soaking with the dates, (use organic dates if possible or half organic and half non-organic. Organic dates are sweeter. Then add in the liquids, mix altogether well in the bowl, mix well – We use a fork and scrape down sides of the bowl with a spatula.
3. Use some extra coconut oil to lightly grease a flat baking tray. Take the mixture out and roll them into a ball, put the mixture individually onto the greased tray – about 1.5 cm in height thickness and approx 6 centimetres wide. We use a fork or fingers to lightly press them into a biscuit shape
4. Makes approximately 8-9. Cook for approximately 25 minutes or until browned
5. Leave them to cool for a few minutes on the tray. Then transfer them onto a cooling rack. Enjoy them warm or at room temperature.

Joanne’s Tip– Use Organic whenever possible – Dates and coconut oil are bursting with nutrients for energy and vitality. Cutting the dates small takes an extra few minutes but it’s worthwhile for a sweeter mix. We use Medjool dates. Melt the coconut oil to a liquid if it is solid – see below how to melt it for healthcare.

For healthcare, no microwave is used as it depletes the nutrition of foods. It is vital we receive all the beneficial nutrients.

To melt the oil, use a bowl that is quarter filled with hot water and place a cup with the measured amount of solid coconut oil into it – solid coconut oil when it is melted is around the same measurement, depends on the brand. Stir it frequently until it becomes a liquid. It happens fairly quickly. Enjoy the cookies with a healing warm organic herbal tea.
