These Apple Apricot Quinoa Cookies are filled with fruity goodness and make great snacks! Made with whole grains and quinoa flakes, to keep you satiated.
Happy September! Yes, I know it’s the 10th. But, I took a teeny break from the blog last week, mostly to work on the cookbook. Also, some people don’t know yet, the working title of it is Vegan Yack Attack On the Go! It caters to people that are short on time, and also prepares them with food on-the-move. Literally. Pretty excited about this one! It’s due out Summer of 2018, but I’ll let you know when it’s available for pre-sale orders. <3
For now, I’m looking forward to the coming of Fall! Though, I’m still in the camp of “it’s too soon to start posting pumpkin recipes”. It’s like everyone forgets about apple season!! Don’t worry apples (I don’t think they’re actually worried), I won’t forget about you. While I still need to plan a trip to an orchard this year -if I have time- let’s take advantage of these seasonal sweet beauties. That’s why I made these apple apricot quinoa cookies!
I think this combination of apples and apricots is perfect for bridging summer and fall. And, because the apricots are dried, you really can make this for all of the autumn season. These aren’t your standard cookies, they’re a little fluffy and surprisingly light. The chunks of fruit offer little pops of sweetness, and the pumpkin seeds are nice and crunchy.
I only got to eat a couple of these before I gifted them to my mom, for her travels in Michigan! She was very grateful. Meanwhile, I’m sitting here, typing this up, wishing I had some damn cookies. Be smarter than I, and make a double batch!! 😉
