How to make insomnia cookies? 

To make insomnia cookies you will need:

• Dry ingredients:
  • 200g whole gluten free rolled oats
  • 50g organic shredded coconut
  • 50g organic chopped walnut
  • 1 tsp organic cinnamon

• Wet ingredients:
  • 300g (approx. 2-3) over-ripe organic bananas, mashed
  • 320ml of Restful Tea or Peaceful Tea
  • 1 tbsp of organic rice syrup
  • 2 tbsp organic coconut oil
  • 1 1/2 tsp pure organic vanilla extract

Method: 

1. Preheat oven to 200°C and prepare some tea of your choice. We recommend our Restful Tea or Peaceful Tea.
   Infuse 1 tablespoon of loose leaves in 1 litre of freshly boiled water for a minimum of 5 minutes. Separate herbs from water by straining the liquid through a fine mesh.
   You only need 320ml, but this way you will have some tea left over to enjoy with your cookies.
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine all dry ingredients and stir thoroughly.
3. In a separate bowl, combine the banana with the remaining wet ingredients.
4. Mix wet into dry. Then spoon or mould the dough in cookie-sized portions on a paper lined baking tray.
5. Bake for approx. 25 minutes, or a little longer if you want your insomnia cookies more crispy.
