Préparation

1. 1

   Preheat your oven to 350°F or 325°F for a convection oven, and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. 2

   In a small bowl, whisk together the warm water and flax or chia seeds.

3. 3

   In a large bowl, whisk together the granola, rice flour, tapioca starch, baking powder, xanthan gum, and starch.

4. 4

   In a mixing bowl, mix the agave, oil, flaxseed mixture, molasses, and vanilla with a hand mixer for a few minutes.

   With a 1-ounce scoop, scoop the cookie dough onto your prepared baking sheet.

   Bake the cookies for 10 minutes or until golden brown around the edges.

   Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days.
