  • 1 cup -1 Tbsp | 100 g wheat flour | all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup -1 Tbsp | 100 g buckwheat flour
  • 1 cup +1 Tbsp | 100 g ground tiger nuts**
  • 1 cup | 100 g coconut blossom sugar
  • 1 tsp ceylon cinnamon
  • 1 tsp baking soda

Wet ingredients:

  • 4 Tbsp | 80 g almond butter (100% almonds)
  • 2 Tbsp | 40 g virgin coconut oil

[:de]Anleitung[:en]Instructions[:]

  1. Preheat oven to 170°C | 340°F and lay out a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  2. Put the chai tea in a coffee grinder and grind for about 1 minute. Then pass the powder through a fine sieve and dispose of the larger pieces.

  3. Put all dry ingredients in a large baking dish and mix.

  4. Add the moist ingredients in succession to the flour mixture. First stir with a fork and then knead with your hands until a slightly moist dough has formed.

  5. Now form approx. 40 cherry-sized balls and distribute them on the baking tray.

    Finally, put an almond slice on each ball and then put the chai cookies in the oven for 10 minutes.

  6. When they have finished baking, let the cookies cool on the baking tray.

  7. When the cookies have completely cooled, it is best to keep them sealed in a cookie jar so they won't dry out. Enjoy!

* If you don't have loose tea, you can just cut open 4 teabags instead.
