    Muesli Cookies

    Since returning home from our holiday, we have been trying to eat well in an attempt to lose the unwanted Christmas gift of a couple of extra kilos.  There are still times though when we do feel like something a little special, and these cookies fit the bill.

    I’ve been giving Donna Hay’s Modern Classics 2 a bit of a workout over the past week. It had been awhile since I’d sat down and really read through it, and there have been quite a few recipes that have jumped out at me to try.  As always, I have made a couple of substitutions and additions to the original recipe.  To start with I reduced the sugar content, and used wholemeal spelt flour instead of plain flour.  I also just used what I had in the pantry, the recipe suggest ¼ cup dried apricots and ¼ cup dried apples – both chopped and ¼ cup sultanas.  I debated whether to add the malted milk powder, but went along with it and I ended up with a yummy, chewy biscuit – which I do love.    As always my big boy was happy to be a taste tester and has also given them his tick of approval.

    Ingredients
      

    • ½ cup rapadura sugar
    • 125 g butter - softened
    • 1 egg
    • ½ cup malted milk powder
    • 1 ¼ cups wholemeal spelt flour you can use plain flour instead
    • ½ teaspoon bicarbonate of soda
    • 1 cup rolled oats
    • ¼ cup shredded coconut
    • 2 tablespoons chia seeds
    • 2 tablespoons wheatgerm
    • ¼ cup currants
    • ½ cup goji berries
    • 1 teaspoon cinnamon

    Instructions
     

    • Preheat oven to 170 degrees
    • Beat together the sugar, butter and egg in a bowl until smooth - if using rapadura sugar you will see some small sugar crystals throughout the mixture.
    • Add all other ingredients and mix together until combined.
    • Roll tablespoons of the mixture into balls, place onto baking trays and flatten slightly.  Make sure you leave room for the cookies to spread.
    • Bake for 15 minutes until beginning to brown on top - cool on trays for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
