QUINOA COOKIES

I bake with my three-year-old at least once a week. We have tried a plethora of different cookies with different fruits and bases. This one was a hit! My three-year-old and older child both loved these, and I did too! They are super simple to make and sneak fiber, protein, and other nutrients into dessert! I used one cookie sheet for nine cookies, three rows of three fit well.

Tips:

  • Use room temperature ingredients. This will help the cookies spread and bake evenly.
  • Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing can make the cookies tough.
  • Chill the dough before baking. This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Bake the cookies until they are just set. Overbaking will make them dry and crumbly.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before enjoying them. This will allow the flavors to develop and the cookies to firm up.
