  • 1.5 teaspoons corn flour
  • 1.5 cups almond flour
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla powder or extract
  • ½ teaspoon cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • 3 tablespoons flaxseed
  • 1.5 tablespoons coconut oil, melted
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 flax egg (1 tablespoon flaxseed mixed with 2 tablespoons water) or 1 egg
Directions
  1. Preheat oven to 180 degrees celsius or 356 fahrenheit
  2. Add raspberries to a small saucepan on a low heat with the water. Gently heat the berries until they start to break down and form a liquid. This should take around 5 minutes
  3. Add the maple syrup and mix well
  4. Gradually add the corn flour and stir well until the raspberry coulis begins to thicken slightly. Take off the heat and allow to cool
  5. Add almond flour, vanilla powder, cinnamon, baking soda and three tablespoons of flaxseed to a large mixing bowl
  6. Mix coconut oil and honey together and pour into the bowl with the dry ingredients
  7. In a small bowl, mix together the flax egg (1 tablespoon of flaxseed with 2 tablespoons of water) and pour into the mixing bowl
  8. Mix all of the ingredients together until well combined
  9. Take a small amount of the mixture and roll into a ball. Place the cookie on a baking tray lined with greaseproof paper. Repeat the process with the remaining mixture
  10. Place the cookies in the fridge for around an hour to allow the mixture to become firm
  11. Take the cookies out of the fridge and place a thumbprint in the centre of each one
  12. Put the cookies in the oven to bake for 12-15 minutes or until golden
  13. Once the cookies have cooled down, spoon a small amount of the raspberry coulis into the centre of the cookies
