Your tastebuds will dance a jig! |
These cookies are chewy and crispy at the same time. A delight for the mouth!
And using this quantity of real Roses makes them medicinal! |
Rose is cooling, assists with digestion including lessening gut inflammation and creating a healthy gut mircrobiome (anti-infective), supports good mood by addressing Liver stagnation, and as such is used for insomnia, frustration, depression, resentment, and fatigue. In TCM, we'd say Rose, Mei Gui Hua, moves Qi and harmonizes Blood. It can be useful for menstrual complaints.
Grind dried Roses until powdered. You can use a coffee bean grinder. |
Ingredients and Directions:
1 2/3c. flour
(you can use and mix various flours, I like these to use sprouted whole grain flours because they are better for you and also quinoa as it is a complete protein)
1/3 c. powdered Rose petals or buds
mix above in separate bowl with 1 tspn. baking powder
In another bowl mix:
2c. sugar
1/2c. coconut oil, melted/soft
1-2 tspn. vanilla extract (amt. depends on how strong you want the vanilla)
1c. sesame tahini, well mixed first
2 eggs
Blend together, place on greased baking sheet by the teaspoon scoop
Bake 350 degrees . 8-12 min. (less time for chewier, more for crispier)
Makes about 80 cookies; this is 8 minutes cooking for chewier. |
This is 12 minutes cooking for crispier. |
These cookies will delight your senses, first when you bake them and smell them, then when you eat them, and lastly when Rose works her magic!
You can harvest your own Roses for this; just make sure they are chemical-free! These can be wild-grown or from your organic garden. |
