oatmeal cookies

disclaimer: one reader had tried my "luscious banana cake" and tried to duplicate it based on the recipe i posted. i usually bake in volume, and i have been scaling down my baking recipes when i post them online. but i found out - through my reader, an experienced natural cook herself - that it didn't work well. oftentimes when i make a recipe, when i double or triple it, i can use different types of sweeteners, flours, etc. this doesn't translate so well when i post the recipe as a "single" portion. so now i am going to post my recipes AS I MAKE THEM and if YOU, the reader, choose to scale it down, gezunter heit. :-)

oatmeal cookies (loosely based on a recipe from "the happy go lucky vegan"):

6c rolled oats

1c whole wheat flour

1c ground flax

1c wheat germ **

2 1/4c shredded coconut

3 tbsp cinnamon

3 large pinches sea salt

3/4c honey

3/4c brown rice syrup

3/4c agave nectar

1c olive oil

1/2c toasted sesame oil

3 tsp vanilla extract

3c natural puffed cereal (i used a puffed rice/millet combo)

** 1c of the dry mix could very nicely be substituted with carob or cocoa

roll into nice size balls and bake for about 7 mins at 350. voila! yum!
