Dia De Los Muertos Raw Vegan Pecan Cookies

Passionately Raw! - Dia De Los Muertos Raw Vegan Pecan Cookies

Halloween, Samhain, All Saint's Day, Dia de los Muertos... riots; elections in the USA; pandemic; lockdowns in Europe, New Zealand and Australia; an order from the governor of New Mexico for citizens to stay at home, issued only five days before the elections; and the year is not over yet. 

This is a little too much for anyone, so you will have to forgive me that I am not sharing a detailed recipe, but only a suggestion. 

I made these cookies in two ways: chilled and dehydrated. I used the same ingredients in different proportions. More fat for the chilled cookies; more coconut flour for the dehydrated ones. Adding a small amount of psyllium husk powder will help to keep the dough ingredients together.

Passionately Raw! - Dia De Los Muertos Raw Vegan Pecan Cookies

Ingredients: 

  • coconut flour
  • almond butter
  • vanilla bean
  • maple syrup 
  • Himalayan pink salt
  • psyllium husk powder
  • raw pecan nuts

Method:

I mixed the dough in a mixing bowl and let it sit for about thirty minutes. For each cookie I took about one teaspoon of dough, rolled into a ball, flattened with my thumb, and added a pecan nut. 

Raw cookies and confections are very short lived. Make small batches and refrigerate in air tight containers. And always enjoy in good company!

Wishing everyone a good start into November and a very Happy Dia de los Muertos! 

Do as the Mexicans do - celebrate life. 

In radiant health, passionately raw - Dominique
