Nutty Millet Breakfast Cookies

     This afternoon I decided to make cookies. But not just any cookies... They were healthy cookies! The recipe was from a book called Whole Grain Mornings  by Megan Gordan. The cookies were supposed to be a healthy whole grain breakfast, whether you're in a hurry to get to the bus or just taking it slow on a Sunday morning these make a great breakfast.

     In the fall my mom and I started a list of recipes from this book we wanted to try. Twice a week for ten weeks we made a special breakfast for each morning. We made everything from Peach cobbler to Ginger Bread cake. These are some excellent recipes and you should definitely try  them sometime. We also had to be very flexible, one day hazelnuts weren't in season so we couldn't make our own chocolate hazelnut spread so we used nutella! Every recipe in this book uses whole grains like farro, spelt flour, buckwheat flour, millet, brown rice, barley & wheat berries. Whole grains are healthy for you, that is why we like this book so much.

     These were some great recipes and you should definitely try them sometime. We have only tried 20 recipes so far I look forward to making them all. If you check out some recipes I wish you the best of luck. Good luck on the cooking. -Ginger :)
