Healthy Chocolate Cookies

レシピ

材料・調味料

Butter: 1/4 cup + 2tbsp

Greek Yogurt: 1/8 cup

Chia Seeds (instead of eggs): 3 tbsp

Maple Syrup: 1/2 cup

Honey: 1/2 cup

Vanilla Extract: 1 tsp

All Purpose Flour: 1 cup

Unsweetened Cocoa Powder: 1/3 cup

Baking Soda: 1/2 tsp

Salt: A pinch (~1/4 tsp)

Chopped Almonds (opt.): As much as you want

作り方

1: Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease a pan for the cookies or you can just use a cookie sheet.

2: Add butter & Greek yogurt to a large mixing bowl. Mix (with a whisk or electric mixer) until creamy.

3: Add in maple syrup & honey. Mix until creamy.

4: Put in chia seeds (You can grind these if you don't want the sesame seed-like texture). Add vanilla & mix.

5: Sift together all dry ingredients. THEN add it to the wet mixture. (Add the dry mixture in parts to minimize clumpy lumpiness). Mix well & make sure there are no lumps!

6: (Opt.) Add chopped almonds (or any nuts, dried fruits, etc.) & light mix.

7: Spoon the mixture onto your pan. (I used a regular spoon because I wanted all kinds of sizes. If you want consistent sizes, use a tablespoon)

8: Voila! You've got a perfect batch of cookies. (: Cool them first. (On a rack)
They are very soft & have almost a brownie like texture. You can actually use this as a brownie mix if you'd like :D

ポイント

Chia seeds can be used in the place of eggs. (3 tbsp = 1 egg) Grinding them will help them blend better so you won't even notice the seeds! I personally like the little seeds in my cookies(:

These cookies aren't too sweet. So if you want sweeter cookies, increase the amount of maple syrup & honey. Or add some chocolate chips.
