½

2

2 tablespoons chia seeds, combined with 6 tablespoons warm water

1
tablespoon
pure vanilla extract
Juice of ½ a lemon
about 1 tablespoon
Zest of 1 lemon

Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
Combine chia seeds with warm water and let stand for 10 minutes.
Meanwhile, sift dry ingredients into a medium mixing bowl and set aside.
Beat together wet ingredients - chia eggs, honey, oil, vanilla and lemon juice - until fully combined. Stir in lemon zest.
Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients and mix to form a moist cookie dough.
Spoon batter into golf ball-sized cookies, pressing down lightly with your hands, and place on the baking sheet.
Bake for 8 - 10 minutes, until cookies have started to brown but are still tender to the touch.
Cool on a wire rack for 10 - 15 minutes.
Serve with a glass of milk or steaming cup of hot tea.
