Courtesy of our free Healthy Cookies Recipes Newsletter
Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 cups flour (I use a mixture of two, usually gluten free with 1 tsp or so of tapioca flour) - any kind works
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 2 tsp cinnamon
- 1 1/2 cups grated apple

- 1 egg
- 1/3 cup apple butter
- 1 tsp lemon juice
- Grated lemon rind (optional)
- 1/3 cup butter

Preparation Instructions:
Combine flours, cinnamon, and soda then mix in butter until crumbly.

Add egg mixture and grated apples to flour mixture and combine well adding liquid if needed (I will add goat's milk) until flour is just moistened.
Then add dates and carob chips.
Stir well and drop onto cookie sheet.
