  2. Add in the flours and mix until blended.
  3. Add in the extras you are using - chia seeds, dried fruit, etc
  4. Mix until all ingredients are blended.
  5. Drop by big tablespoons onto a parchment lined cookie sheet and bake at 350 degrees for about 25 minutes or until a bit brown and crispy on the edges.

Notes

These are so customizable!  Add in chocolate chips, omit superfoods, or add in different ones. 
Budget tip:  I often sub 3 cups of oats for three cups of the almond flour and these turn out great for a fraction of the price.
We freeze these and pull them out at night for breakfasts or lunches the following day.
