What makes this fall treat a superfood? The protein and flax superfood additions boost this healthy snack with plant  proteins and omega 3’s.

This protein and flax packed snack is a family favorite. Enjoy this pumpkin superfood cookie with coconut milk, almond milk or  hot chocolate on a cold winter afternoon.

My kids love this pumpkin superfood cookie when they get home from school, and I love that I am giving them healthy plant proteins and a boost of omegas for their brain and cardivascular health from the flax.

Ingredients:

2 c pumpkin puree

1/4 c vegan plant protein

1 T ground flax

1 c applesauce

1 tsp pumpkin pie spice

1 1/2 T cinnamon

4 c rolled oats

1 c vegan chocolate chips

Optional: chopped walnuts

Directions:

Preheat oven to 300 degrees

Mix all ingredients, folding in the chocolate chips last.

Using a small ice cream or melon scoop, scoop the dough into a baking sheet greased with coconut oil.

Bake for 15-18 minutes.

Cookies should be soft, but not too doughy.

Enjoy!

 

Live Life Optimally,
