Snickerdoodles

yum -- I bet millet and flax would work really well. I can't wait to try these!

BTW I think I read somewhere you can save the water from them and use if for washing? Not sure about that but hey maybe I'll give it a try cuz I really like these cookies.

YUMMMM I made these tonight and they are delicious!

Joyce- For sweetner you can add a little stevia. It's a white powdered natural sweetner found at most health food stores. It's really strong so just add a little!

Ok one of the reasons that your cookies might be tasting like medicine is because millet has a soapy coating and if you don't rinse this off really well with warm water then when raw cooking with it you might get that flavor. Try doing several rinses of warm water and rubbing the seeds in the water between your fingers. Just what I've experienced with millet.

Ok. I have to tell you....after dehydrating these the entire room smelled like soap. My husband tasted one and began singing "Zest fully clean!" Yea...these are pretty bad. Bummer because I wanted to have a nice cookie. :(

I just made these. I followed the instructions and even added more of the agave and it tastes sooooooo bad. It's mediciney! I am so upset. I soaked the millet for exactly 3 hours and drained it completely. This is so disappointing because the ingredients aren't cheap. I haven't dehydrated them yet....it tastes terrible right now. What a bummer. I will try again NOT using millet.

i made these according to the recipe. the dough tasted incredible and i was SO excited. but after a couple of hours (and especially after dehydration), the cookies began to taste like soap. any idea why this happened or how i can prevent it from happening again?

I question the instructions when it states to aim for the "consistency of thin crepe batter." Crepe batter is quite thin already, isn't it? So thin crepe batter would be nearly watery. Both times I've made this, I've added in a lot of water at that point to make it thinner (although I've never gotten as thin as what I would consider to be crepe batter), but then I realize quickly that it's TOO thin b/c the 2 cups of coconut does not thicken it to cookie dough thickness.

(Note: earlier, I had posted that I made it with major modifications. Well, the second time, I did follow the recipe exactly.)

Also, both times, I think the dough tastes great, but I make the cookies and as time wears on, the taste gets more & more bitter/medicine-y. Is this common with millet? That's the only ingredient I can imagine is causing the problem b/c I have more experience with the other ingredients & this is my first recipe with millet.

Okay, I just noticed looking through the comments that there was instruction to soak the millet for three hours. I soaked mine all night... so could it be that it was too long and the millet kind of goes bad or something?

Thanks poemomm! I'll use almond meal from strained almond milk too :)

I really have to make those

I cannot eat grains, I dont know why, they just don't digest for me. Do you have any suggestions for substitutes? Thanks

PPS Lord sorry I'm posting so much on this, but how should these be stored? This recipe made way more cookies than I can eat. It put my eating abilities to shame.

PS I suggest dipping these in almond mylk..... yummy. I'm doing so right now!

This is the worst recipe ever. I just made these a few minutes ago, and do you have any idea the havoc they are going to wreak on my waistline?? They taste SO GOOD!!!!

Oh lord. If you need anything you can find me at the gym. Eating these on the treadmill.

How many cookies does this make?

I must have done something wrong because they were not a hit at all. I rolled them in cinnamon but they almost ended up tasting mediciney for some reason. I was so looking forward to these too. I don't know, I followed exactly as is. So sad.

wow. I can't believe this recipe. I modified a lot (just went with what I had) and it's delicious! They're in the dehydrator now.

I used cashews instead of almonds. For the 1 cup of millet & 2 cups of oat grouts, I used a total of 3 cups of mixed sprouted grains: millet, wheat berries, rye berries, quinoa, & buckwheat. It was the first time I'd purchased any of those & was attempting sprouting them while I looked for a recipe for them. Now that I've found this recipe, I think I'll be buying them regularly!!

The rolling into balls was a little messy, but that's always a good reason to lick off my palms afterwards. Thanks for this recipe!!

YUMMMM I made these tonight and they are delicious!

poemomm - you can edit your recipe to include the agave. This looks great and I'd like to try it too. I was also wondering about a sweetner.

How much agave nectar?

Did you use anything to sweeten the cookies? I just made a 1/2 batch and they seemed pretty "oaty" and so thick that I didn't even end up adding the coconut. So I added a little Agave. Similar to the regular Snickerdoodles but would be open to ideas on how to make them taste a little sweeter or more rich. Thanks.
