Fiber Cookies

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350°

Step 2

If your flaxseed are whole, grind them. I have found a coffee grinder works best.

Step 3

Add flaxseed, chia seed, prunes, figs, orange zest, orange juice, vanilla, cinnamon, and water to a food processor process until smooth. You can just remove the seeds and add the whole orange after you zest the orange, but you may have a few bits of the orange membrane in your cookies. That doesn't bother me, but it is up to you.

Step 4

Toss oat bran with baking powder and add to the mixture.

Step 5

Pulse the food processor to just combine.

Step 6

Scoop batter and place on a silicone baking mat or parchment-lined cookie sheet. I use this scoop and it works great.

Step 7

Bake for 30 minutes.

Step 8

Let cool and then store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.

Step 9

I zap mine for 15-20 seconds before I enjoy them.
