Directions

---

• STEP 1
  

  Microwave juice, flax seed, and apples on low/defrost for 10 minutes, stirring once.  This will soften the flax and “set” the apples so that they won’t fall apart. Set aside to cool.

• STEP 2
  

  Whisk eggs, sugars, and extract together, beat in melted butter.

• STEP 3
  

  Mix flour, oats, salt, spices, baking soda and baking powder. 

• STEP 4
  

  Toss in apples/flax until coated, then add egg/sugar mixture until dough comes together.

• STEP 5
  

  Preheat oven to 375°F.  Spray 2 cookie sheets with non-stick spray, or use parchment to line. 

• STEP 6
  

  Portion cookies onto baking sheets, using a large spoon or ice cream scoop.

• STEP 7
  

  Cut eyes, nose and mouth shapes from the remaining apple if desired.

• STEP 8
  

  Flatten cookies with the bottom of a drinking glass, and arrange the monster faces.

• STEP 9
  

  Bake for 18-25 minutes, until centres are set and edges are just beginning to brown.
