Rawcology Chocolate Granola Breakfast Cookies
Bake cookies. Eat. Repeat!
We love an indulgently delicious breakfast cookie recipe that is full of plant-based goodness. Naturally sweetened with only banana and maple syrup, these chewy delights are full of antioxidants from raw cacao and cinnamon, healthy fats from coconut oil and Rawcology Granola, and protein from hemp hearts, sprouted seeds and almond butter.
The Queen of Antioxidants
Raw Cacao is considered a superfood because of the many health benefits it holds. Cacao is rich in magnesium, zinc, and iron while also being a great source of antioxidants. Cacao is the highest plant-based source of iron. Iron is an essential mineral that the body needs for growth and development. Cacao is also one of the highest plant-based sources of magnesium, which supports muscle and nerve function and energy production. Boosting with antioxidants, cacao is rich in polyphenols that help prevent damage within our cells. Your future self will thank you for adding more cacao into your diet.
