Servings 20 pieces

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 cup almonds
  • ½ cup hazelnuts
  • ½ cup walnuts
  • 1 cup buckwheat flour
  • 5 Medjool Dates, seeds removed (or any other dates, natural and without sugar added)
  • 3 tbsp coconut honey or maple syrup
  • ¼ cup water
  • 3 tbsp chia seeds
  • 3 tbsp raw cacao powder
  • 10-20 gr organic dark chocolate (70% or 90%), broken into small pieces - optional

INSTRUCTIONS

  • Preheat the oven to 180 C (fan).
  • Place the nuts in a food processor and chop them for about 2 minutes, until you have flour.
  • Add all the other ingredients and pulse until you have a sticky paste.
  • Roll small balls and place them on a lining baking tray (use a piece of waxing paper for example). Flatten each ball using a spoon or your hands, until you have nice and thin cookies.
  • Add 1 or 2 pieces of dark chocolate on top of each cookies, pressing down slightly so the chocolate is nicely nested (this is optional but it's a great addition to the cookies).
  • Put it in the oven for approx. 15-20 min or until brown and crispy. Check it after about 10 minutes to make sure it is not burning, as it depends sometimes on your oven.
  • Take them out and let them cool down before to eat them up!
