Flax Seed Honey Cookies image

I came up with this recipe when I wanted my 17 month old daughter to start taking flax. They are simple tasting, chewy and fairly easy to make. I flatten them down twice during baking with a spatula; once after 5 minutes of baking and then about a minute before they come out of the oven. DO NOT USE FLAX OIL in this recipe or any baking recipe for that matter as it breaks down into a substance that is not safe for ingestion. Only use flax seeds for baking or flax meal. Prep time doesn't include chill time.

I'm not a big fan of flax seeds, but these cookies were surprisingly good. The honey really balances out the flavor.

These cookies are a bit too sweet for my taste. I would reduce the amount of honey next time.

Not bad, but not great either. The cookies were a bit dry and crumbly for my taste.

Easy to make and turned out great! I used almond flour instead of all-purpose flour and they still came out perfect.

I was a bit skeptical about using honey as the main sweetener, but I was pleasantly surprised. The cookies are perfectly balanced and not too sweet. I also love the chewy texture.

These cookies are incredibly delicious! The flax seeds add a nice crunch and the honey gives them a subtle sweetness. I'll definitely be making these again.
