Chocolate Chip Flaxseed Cookies

Wednesday, May 15, 2019, is National Chocolate Chip Cookie day so I wanted to share a slightly changed recipe that I have been using for a couple of decades. The change? Milled flaxseed for oatmeal. The result was a plumb cookie that didn't taste any different than if I had made it with only whole wheat flour but where each cookie had more than 1 gram of dietary fiber! The milled Eternae By Nature flaxseed I got through the Amazon Vine

By TammyJo Eckhart

Ingredients:

2 Egg Whites
1 tsp Vanilla Extract
2 T Cocoa Honey
1/3 C Hot Water
1 tsp Baking Soda
1/4 tsp Salt
1 C Plain Applesauce
1/4 C Splenda
1/4 C Brown Sugar
1 C Milled Flaxseed
4 C Whole Wheat Flour
12 oz Chocolate Chips

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 325°F and line baking sheets with parchment paper.

2. Mix together Flaxseed and Flour.

3. Dissolve baking soda in the water.

4. Mix together all "wet" ingredients until smooth.

5. Slowly add in the sugars and salt until full blended.

6. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ones slowly until it is fully blended.

7. Stir in the chocolate chips.

8. Add cookie dough by small spoonfuls to the lined baking sheets. The cookies will NOT spread out, so the shape you make them in is what they will look like at the end only slightly darker.

9. Bake cookies for 11 minutes or so.

10. Cool and then eat!

Have you used milled Flaxseed in baking before?
