flax breakfast cookies

5-ingredient grain-free, vegan, oil-free and paleo breakfast cookies made with 100% flax (no other flours or meals)! They are crispy, chewy, nutty, and made with ease in a muffin tin. A keto option is available, too!

100% Flax Breakfast Cookies {grain-free, vegan, oil-free, paleo, keto option}

(125 mL) unsweetened natural nut butter (e.g., almond, cashew, peanut)

(75 mL) nondairy milk (I used almond milk)

vanilla extract

cinnamon

(80 g) flaxseed meal

(100 g) raisins (omit

Preheat the oven to 325°F (160°C). Grease or spray the cups of a 12-cup muffin pan with nonstick cooking spray.

In a medium bowl, combine the nut butter, maple syrup, milk, optional vanilla and cinnamon, until blended. Stir in the flaxseed meal and raisins until combined.

Evenly divide batter into prepared muffin cups.

Bake in preheated oven for 18 to 22 minutes, until golden brown, the surface of the cookies appears dry, and the centers feel just firm to the touch.

Let cool in pan on a wire rack for 10 minutes. Run knife around edges to loosen, then remove and place on rack to cool completely.

I had been wanting to make a healthy breakfast muffin or cookie that I could bake up once a week for an easy breakfast for me and a grab and go breakfast for hubby.  Anything to get him away from his little debbie addiction.  I'm post cancer treatment and my appetite is hit or miss but some of my meds have to be taken with food.  This and the no sugar slimfast are easy solutions to get something in my stomach.  I had everything I needed except raisins or nuts to add in...(other than the salted kind.) I had a bag of raw macadamia nuts that I snack on (oncologist suggested, they contain a cancer fighting vitamin) so I whipped that up in a mini food processor for the nut butter. Then I realized I had a bag of Coastal Berries trail mix from Costco, awesome stuff with dried berries and nuts and yogurt chips....so I used that as the add-ins.  Turned out absolutely awesome!

I forgot to add: I also didnt use maple syrup as I didn't have any...but I did have molasses.  Still very good and healthy.

where are the raisins in the recipe?
I´ve made it a couple of days ago and it turned out amazing. omited the chocolate

thank you for providing this recipe - can you put the rating stars at thr top? you are u rated on this I believe because it is so far down and less people clock no ratings

I just made these and thumbs up from everyone.  I love the simplicity of the ingredients.  Made it just as posted.  Perfect!  Thanks for sharing this very tasty healthy recipe.

Tastes great but wish was more crispy. Any suggestions?

I'm not on a low carb or keto diet, I was just trying to find a way to use up some flax meal in my fridge when i found this. I used almond butter and did a 50/50 mix of chocolate chips and dried berries and used skim milk. I may have under cooked them (my oven takes way to long to preheat) but the insides were soft and chewy and tasted just like cookie dough!! And I ate them without worrying about eating raw eggs :) They were so delicious!! I wish I had doubled the batch. Thanks so much for sharing this recipe!

Made these this morning and tried one, then had to have a second one because they were that good..    These are like the most moist muffins (try saying that 3 times) I have ever had.     I baked them for 20 minutes, maybe that wasn't long enough, but their good!

Hi Camilla, 
Thank you for sharing this recipe.  I have much more time on my hands these days and was looking for an eggless cookie. My niece was over when I made them the first time a few weeks ago, and asked for some for her birthday.  I forgot, after dinner she kept saying she was really looking forward to having the cookies.  When I realize I'd forgotten to make the cookies I whipped up a batch, they are so delicious, everyone here loves your recipe!  
I didn't have raisins, and only had peanut butter.  The first time I used cranberries, this time I used cherries. Both times I used nutty peanut butter.  They are quick and easy, and my new go to for snacks.  
I want to try a solar oven with these any suggestions?  Again thank you!

I’m so happy I made this recipe! This is so yummy and healthy.
Instead of maple syrup, I used Manuka honey and walnuts instead of raisins. My sister loved the cookies!!! She asked me for the recipe and made the cookies right away....:)  Thank you Camilla!
