Ingredients:
-225g oats.
-75g coconut oil.

Start by melting the coconut oil and sweet freedom in a large pan. Once it has all melted stir in the oats and raisins. This may take a while to coat all of the oats but just keep stirring. Next line a tin and press the flapjack mixture in to it. Place in the oven on 170'c if its a fan oven and 180'c if normal for 20 minuets or until golden brown.

 Chocolate chip cookies have got to be one of my favourite and these are soft, crumbly and jam packed with chocolate chips. Also perfect for dipping in a brew. !
This recipe makes 8 cookies but you can double it to make more.

-13g raw Lucama powder (can just use more flour).
-22g coconut palm sugar.
-23g sweet freedom.
-23g coconut oil.

-1/2 tsp vanilla extract.
-32g dark chocolate chips.

start by mixing the flour, Lucama and coconut palm sugar together next add the sweet freedom, coconut oil (melt the coconut oil first), almond milk and vanilla extract and bring the mixture together. This will be easier to do with your hands. Add the chocolate chips to the mixture and shape in to any shape you want and place in the oven on 170'c for 12 minuets.

you can substitute the coconut palm sugar and sweet freedom for whatever sugar and liquid sweetener you want.

Lightly spiced coriander falafels

These falafels are lightly spiced with cumin and coriander so they are not very strong but they do taste delicious with houmous (hummus- does anyone ever know how to spell it?!) 

Ingredients: 

-1 can of chickpeas drained (drained weight around 248g). 

-1/2 tsp ground cumin.

-1/2 tsp ground coriander.

-1/2 tsp cayenne pepper.

-small bunch of fresh coriander.

You can use more or less spice. 

-1 large or a couple of small garlic cloves. 

-50g chopped onion. 

-2tbs wholemeal flour (around 17g). 

These are so simple to make, all you have to do is pop everything in a food processor leaving the onions and coriander until last as you don't want them to be as smooth as the rest of the falafel. Once you have done this shape them in to what ever shape you want I once made them into little hearts!. I usually freeze them at this stage and then take them out if the freezer a couple at a time and bake from frozen. You can also cook them straight away instead of freezing by frying in a little bit of oil for a couple of minuets each side or baking them for around 25 mins oven 200'c until golden brown.
