OutdoorFit Energy Cookies
These cookies are spiritual cookies. The recipe is from Brother Juniper’s Bread book by Br. Peter Reinhart. I love to have extra meaning to eating cookies. These cookies have a surprise in every bite and are fairly healthy. Perfect after a cold Outdoorfit workout with a cup of tea.
Enjoy!

1 cup raisins plumped in one cup water

This is a fun cookie recipe. I did make a batch of gluten-free and they came out a bit gritty but not too bad. I also like to add shredded carrots or zucchini so they are a cookie with fruits and veges..

Combine the seeds and nuts and roast or toast them in a dry frying pan until they crackle.Remove from heat immediately and place them in a large bowl. add the rest of the dry ingredients. Add the raisins with the water,honey and oil. Mix together with a spoon.
