Ingredients
  • 1 1/4 cup Organic Ground Pumpkin seeds
  • ¼ cup Organic Ground Watermelon seeds
  • 2 Tbsp Organic Coconut flour
  • 2 Tbsp Organic Ground Turmeric
  • 3 Tbsp Ground Herbs see recipe notes below
  • ½ cup Organic GF Old Fashioned Oats optional, in case the dough is too runny.
  • ½ tsp Celtic sea salt
  • ¼ to ½ tsp Organic Ground cayenne pepper or as much as you can handle!
  • cup Organic Maple or Cane sugar (or your sweetener of choice)
  • 1/3 cup Organic Coconut oil or Grass Fed Ghee cold or room temperature
  • 1 tsp Organic Ground vanilla or safe vanilla essence
  • 1 Farm fresh egg
  • 1 ½ tsp Baking soda
  • 1 tsp Organic Lemon Juice
  • ½ cup PASCHA Organic Dark Chocolate Baking Chips
  • ¼ cup Chopped Organic Pecans Or Wild Black Walnuts optional, but great for texture!
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 325 F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.

  2. In a large mixing bowl mix all the ingredients except the last four until well combined. Make sure the consistency of your dough is right, not too runny or thick, adjust with more dry or wet ingredients.

  3. In a large spoon mix the lemon juice with baking soda to make the reaction and quickly add to the mix until incorporated.

  4. Fold in chocolate chips and pecans.

  5. Place tbsp size spoonfuls across cookie sheet 1 ½ inch apart.
  6. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until cookies are browned on the bottoms.
  7. Remove and cool for at least 25 minutes or longer, or until cookies firm up and set.
Recipe Notes
  1. In a high-speed blender grind watermelon seeds (if using) first. Then add pumpkin seeds and grind into fine mill but stop before it starts turning into butter. Best to freeze them before grinding, that helps the oils in the nuts not to run.
  2. If not using watermelon seeds, make it 1¼ cup of pumpkin seeds.
  3. For "Ground Herbs" Use any combination of Rosehips, Alfalfa, Nettle, Dandelion, Cedar berries (Juniper Monosperma), Hawthorn Berries, Milk Thistle, Ginkgo, Lemongrass, Linden, Horsetail and other herbs that don't taste too strong.
  4. You can make it egg free, by simply opting it out. 
  5. If you are using honey or maple syrup, you will need to compinsate for the extra liquid and add a bit of extra flour.
