Oatmeal Chia Cookies
  1. Preheat your oven to 375F / 190C and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  2. Make a 'chia egg' by combing the chia seeds and water in a bowl and stirring well. Leave for 5-10 minutes, giving it a stir about halfway through. The mixture should be quite 'gooey' and mostly hold together.

  3. Add all your 'dry' ingredients to a bowl - the nuts and seeds, oats, flour, cinnamon and salt.

  4. Add all your 'wet' ingredients - the chia egg, almond butter and maple syrup - to the bowl. Mix very thoroughly until all combined and the dry ingredients are well coated in the almond butter and maple syrup. If it looks too dry, add a touch of maple syrup.

  5. Either use a cookie scoop or use your hands to form a cookie shape. If doing by hand roll the 'dough' in your hands to form a ball and then once on the baking tray press down slightly with the back of your hand so they form a cookie shape. These don't expand so form into the shape you like.

  6. Bake for about 12-14 minutes. Keep an eye on them after ten minutes to check they aren't about to burn!

  7. Transfer to a cooling rack for 5-10 minutes and then enjoy!
