My daughter came for a visit and we had a chance to do some cooking. She is such an inspiration to me and she gets soooo excited about this! We made some healthy cookies that were just ok and found a recipe that was for frozen cookie type treats...which because it is getting cold outside, we really didn't want to make. So we put our thinkers together and came up with these super yummy mango cookies! They are super really healthy. You will love them and feel great about giving these to your kids. You can even have a guilt-free pig out (we did!)
So here they are...
Scrumptious Yummy Coconut Mango Cookies
3 Cups unsweetened Shredded Coconut
1/4 Cup Agave Nectar
2 tsp Vanilla
2 tsp THRIVE Corn Starch
1 T Lemon Zest
4 1/2 Cups THRIVE Oats
1 1/2 Cups crushed nuts - I used raw cashews and pecans
3 Cups THRIVE mango - reconstituted
Puree the mangos. Mix everything except the oats together. Stir in oats. Scoop onto lightly greased cookie sheet and bake at 350 for 15 minutes until edges are lightly browned.
Ok, they look a little like meatballs but they are yummy! I promise!! I used my tablespoon measurer to scoop them so they are rounded. Enjoy!
