During COVID-19 we’ve been hitting the grocery store (usually Costco) every two weeks.\u00a0 Seeing that we’ve got a bubble of 8 people in one household (including 3 very hungry little humans – my kids) we need more food than usual.\u00a0 To avoid hitting the grocery store, we try to get everything we need at Costco. Even if it means having an excessive amount of carrots.\u00a0 The good news is that it’s prompted me to get adventurous with what I make.\u00a0 There’s only so many carrot sticks one can eat!<\/p>\n

\"Morning<\/p>\n

It’s been a few weeks since I’ve made my homemade healthy “treat”.\u00a0 Don’t get me wrong – we’ve been enjoying homemade treats made by other people.\u00a0 Case in point: my mom’s blueberry scones and shortbread cookies are deadly.\u00a0 I may have had a few while staying with them.<\/p>\n

There’s something about going back to my childhood\/teenage home that makes me want to eat like a teenager again.\u00a0 If I found it in the cupboard, I wouldn’t be surprised if I started snacking on Lucky Charms<\/em> or Honeycomb<\/em> cereal<\/a>.\u00a0 Or Twizzlers<\/em>, Joe Louis<\/em>, and Half Moons<\/em> [insert face palm]. My brother would be engulfing his bowl of Fruit Loops<\/em> (which I couldn’t stand) or Passion Flakies.<\/em><\/p>\n

Nope, I was not deprived of sugar in my youth.\u00a0 I promise you that!<\/p>\n

But I’m taking a different path with my own three girls.<\/p>\n

Today I took the morning off and I think I used my time wisely.\u00a0 I make a huge batch of ginger lemon tea and then baked some super healthy Gluten-Free Dairy-Free Paleo Morning Glory Cookies<\/strong><\/em>.<\/p>\n

I could call them Carrot Apple Cookies<\/em>.<\/p>\n

But Gluten-Free Morning Glory Cookies<\/em> has such a nice ring to it, doesn’t it?<\/p>\n

Now I only have 45 carrots to use.<\/p>\n

\"Morning<\/p>\n

I think I see some Carrot Fries<\/em> and Healthy Carrot Cake<\/em> on the horizon.<\/p>\n

But for now we enjoy these Gluten-Free Morning Glory Cookies.<\/em>\u00a0 I don’t expect they will last long so excuse me while I go grab a cookie myself.<\/p>\n

Morning Glory Cookie Ingredients<\/h2>\n

In you don’t have any on hand, here are a few products\/brand alternatives I used for the cookies:<\/p>\n

Almond Flour<\/a> – oat flour is also an option<\/p>\n

Almond Butter<\/a> – any nut or seed butter will do<\/p>\n

Dried Cranberries<\/a> – try raisins or chopped dried apricots too<\/p>\n

No Aluminum Baking Powder<\/a><\/p>\n

\"Gluten-Free<\/p>\n
