Servings 10 servings
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups unbleached flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon sea salt or pink Himalayan salt
- ¾ cup coconut oil soft
- 1.25 cups brown sugar
- ¼ cup pure maple syrup
- ⅔ cup chopped to crushed walnuts
- 1 tablespoon flax meal ground flax seeds mixed with 3 tablespoons warm almond milk OR 1 egg.
Instructions
- If using the flax meal and warm almond milk, mix together and let sit for about 5 to 10 minutes to thicken.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F and line a 9 x 11 baking sheet or tray with parchment paper (not wax paper), I find going up the sides helps to lift the baked cookie bar out of the tray after.
- For this bar I actually combine all ingredients at once and mix on medium low until just combined.
- The batter should be thick and hold together well, maybe just a tiny bit oily and crumbly at the same time.
- Press evening into the lined baking tray.
- Bake for 30 to 35 minutes or until the top is golden brown and the center is just baked through.
- Allow to cool on a rack before using your favorite cookie cutters to create perfectly themed or seasonal treats.
- We do this while the large bar is on a larger cutting board.
