Ingredients to make amaranth cookies:

  • 150 grams of Amaranth
  • 80 grams of wheat flour
  • 50 grams of butter
  • 120 grams of almond flour
  • 1 pinch of Cinnamon powder
  • 1 dessert spoon of baking powder
  • 1 dessert spoon of vanilla essence
  • 40 grams of Chia Seeds
  • 1 pinch of Stevia or sweetener

How to make Amaranth Cookies:

  1. In the first step, what we must do is prepare the ingredients of our homemade cookie recipe.
  2. Bring a frying pan over medium heat and add the amaranth seeds, we must toast it until they take on a dark brown color. Remove them and reserve them to be able to use them later in the recipe.
  3. Take the amaranth seeds, wheat flour and baking powder to a bowl. Mix very well until you integrate all the ingredients.
  4. Hydrate our chia seeds with a little water, what these ingredients will do is that they will replace the egg, which is what gives firmness to a preparation. When we hydrate the chia seeds with water, it takes on a slimy consistency.
  5. Add the butter and the previously hydrated chia seeds to the bowl where we have the rest of the ingredients for our amaranth cookies. Mix very well until the ingredients are integrated.
  6. Finally add the almond flour, cinnamon, sweetener and mix all of this very well until all the dough for our homemade cookies is integrated. Let the dough rest for approximately 15 to 20 minutes and it is ready to make our cookies.
  7. Roll out the dough and with a cookie cutter make the shapes you want, in this case I wanted to make round, clover and drop shaped cookies. I added them to a silicone mat so I could bake them.
  8. Preheat an oven to 180 degrees Celsius and take the amaranth cookies to the oven for approximately 10-15 minutes. Remove them from the oven and let cool.
  9. Serve the amaranth cookies and if you wish, you can decorate it with one of these frosting:
  10. Cheese
  11. strawberries
  12. airing
  13. vanilla for diabetics
  14. And give it Christmas touches, in this case I wanted to make faces on the different cookies to decorate them, let’s remember that it is a healthy recipe since it is sweetened with stevia and contains ingredients that are favorable for our health.
