Healthy Chai Bliss Bar Cookie Ingredients
The base of this healthy cookie recipe relies on almond flour, eggs, coconut sugar, and grass-fed butter. Almond flour is incredibly nutrient dense and creates the perfect cookie texture without the use of wheat flour. And swapping out the traditional refined sugar for unrefined coconut sugar helps lower the glycemic index of these cookies while also adding a number of nutrients naturally found in coconut sugar.
This recipe uses vegan chocolate chips as the mix-in but feel free to get creative here! Swap the chocolate chips with the same amount of chopped nuts or dried fruit for a tasty twist.
In addition to the traditional vanilla extract, this healthy bar cookie recipe uses Earth Echo’s Chai Bliss to add a warming spiciness that is everything you crave this time of year. Not to mention the added boost of superfoods!
