Medjool Dates are always needed and will never go to waste in this house!

Today we made raw flax cookies with coconut oil and with maple syrup, being that I already had the maple syrup out and all, from making the salad dressing, of course.

No-Bake 3-Ingredient Vegan Flaxseed Cookies

1 cup flax seeds, ground

1/4 cup maple syrup

2 tablespoons coconut oil

Grind flax seeds in a Vita-Mix , high speed blender, or food processor. Add maple and coconut oil and blend until a dough forms. If necessary, adjust ratio of dry and wet ingredients until you can form balls, bars, cookies, or any shape desired. Serve immediately. Store extra cookies in an airtight container in the refrigerator or at room temperature for up to 5 days.

A visual guide:

Take 1 c flax seeds and Grind

I used toasted flax which will gave the cookies a slight peanut buttery flavor, even though there’s no actual PB in here.
