For a richer flavor, toast the steel-cut oats lightly before adding them to the dough. Ensure the dandelion petals are thoroughly washed to remove any dirt or insects. If you don't have fresh dandelion blossoms, you can substitute with 1/4 cup of finely chopped dried apricots or other dried fruit for a similar chewy texture. Store the cooled cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week, or freeze for longer storage.

Follow The Directions
01
StepPreheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). (5 minutes) Prepare a baking sheet by lightly greasing it or lining it with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
02
StepIn a medium-sized bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, steel cut oats, brown sugar, flax seeds, chia seeds, and the vibrant yellow petals of the dandelion blossoms. (5 minutes) Gently crush the dried lavender flowers between your fingertips to release their aromatic oils, then add them to the dry mixture. Stir well to combine.
03
StepDrizzle in the vanilla extract. Gradually add the water, mixing continuously until a moist dough forms that holds together when squeezed. The amount of water may vary depending on the humidity and the dryness of the ingredients. Aim for a pliable, but not overly sticky, consistency. (3 minutes)
04
StepDivide the dough into 6 equal portions. (2 minutes) Shape each portion into a cookie and arrange them evenly on the prepared baking sheet, leaving a little space between each cookie.
05
StepBake in the preheated oven until the cookies are dry to the touch and wonderfully fragrant, approximately 10-12 minutes. Keep a close eye on them to prevent burning, as ovens can vary.
06
StepAllow the cookies to cool completely on the baking sheet before carefully removing them. This will allow them to firm up and prevent breakage. (20 minutes)
