Ingredients and Substitutes
Quick Cooking Oats: These delightful cookies start with the heartiness of quick-cooking oats. They provide a chewy texture and nutty flavor, making them the perfect base for your morning treat. Rolled oats can be used instead of quick-cooking oats, but keep in mind that the texture will be a bit more rustic.
Earth Echo Golden Superfood Bliss: Elevate these cookies with a dash of magic from Earth Echo Golden Superfood Bliss. This blend of vibrant turmeric, warming spices, and nourishing adaptogens adds a burst of flavor and wellness to your cookies. It’s like a golden hug for your taste buds and well-being.
Baking Powder: The secret behind these cookies’ rise and fluffiness is baking powder. This leavening agent helps the cookies achieve the perfect texture, creating a delicate balance between soft and chewy.
Salt: A pinch of salt enhances the flavors and brings out the best in all the ingredients.
Pumpkin Seeds: Pumpkin seeds add a delightful crunch to these cookies, giving them a wonderful contrast to chewy oats. These tiny gems are also a source of plant-based protein, healthy fats, and essential minerals. Sunflower seeds can be used as a replacement for pumpkin seeds.
Chia Seeds: These mighty seeds are the invisible heroes of these cookies. They not only add a fun speckled appearance but also provide a boost of omega-3 fatty acids, fiber, and a gentle crunch. Chia seeds also help bind the cookies together naturally.
Ground Flaxseed: Ground flaxseed acts as an egg substitute, adding moisture and structure to these cookies without the need for conventional eggs.
Bananas: Mashed bananas not only infuse the cookies with natural sweetness but also contribute to the chewy texture.
Maple Syrup: Maple syrup brings the right amount of sweetness to these cookies while adding a hint of caramel-like flavor. Honey or agave nectar can be used as alternatives to the maple syrup in this recipe.
Milk: Whether you opt for almond milk, oat milk, or cow’s milk, this liquid goodness imparts a touch of moisture and richness that ensures your cookies bake up soft and tender.
How to Make Golden Milk Cookies
- Preheat the oven.
- Combine the dry ingredients in a large mixing bowl and mix well.
- Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until well combined.
- Allow the cookie dough to chill in the refrigerator for half an hour.
- Scoop tablespoon rounds of the dough onto a parchment paper-lined cookie sheet, then flatten each cookie with the palm of your hand to form cookie shapes.
- Bake the cookies for 12-15 minutes or until firm and golden.
- Enjoy!
Top Tips
- Be certain to chill the dough before baking. When you first mix the batter, it will be a little loose. Once chilled, it is super easy to form it into cookies and work with it.
- These cookies do not spread in the oven like conventional cookies. How you shape them is how they will look when they are done baking.
- You can add additional ingredients to these cookies. For instance, a handful of chocolate chips will make these more of a dessert cookie, and a handful of shredded coconut will add some healthy fats.
