HOMESTEAD HARVEST COOKIES



Homestead Harvest Cookies image

Delicious whole grain cookies your great-grandmother might have made... with a twist! Made with whole wheat, honey, sweet dried fruits, and black walnuts, this chewy cookie is sure to please. What a fun way to enjoy out-of-season fruit and eat a little more wholesome too! They remind me of growing up on my parents' little homestead in Missouri... my mother could do many amazing things with fruit, we never got tired of the same ol' thing with her cooking!

Tips:

  • Choose ripe and fresh apples: Using crisp and flavorful apples will elevate the taste of your cookies.
  • Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing can result in tough cookies. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough helps the cookies hold their shape and prevents them from spreading too much.
  • Bake the cookies until the edges are golden brown: This ensures that the cookies are cooked through without being overdone.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before storing: This helps the cookies set and prevents them from becoming soggy.
