Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups blanched almond flour
  • 1 cup quinoa flour
  • ½ cup chocolate chips
  • 3 tbsp chia seeds
  • 9 tbsp water
  • ½ cup dried cherries
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • ½ tsp baking soda
  • ½ cup ghee, coconut oil, or duck fat
  • 1 tbsp honey (optional)
  • ½ cup pecans

Instructions
 

  • Combine chia seeds and water in a bowl and let sit for five minutes to form a"chia egg."
  • Place all ingredients with chia egg in a stand mixer and mix until thoroughly combined.
  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Line a cookie sheet with a Silpat or baking paper.
  • Place 1 T. balls on the prepared pan, and flatten each ball (if it's crumbly you can squeeze them to stay together).
  • Bake for 13 minutes. With the addition of the honey, it's a bit more like a cookie; without the honey, it's more like a scone.
  • Serve immediately or freeze for later consumption
