Delicious Orange, Almond & Chia Cookies

I am in love with cookies lately! This is the 5th batch of cookies I have baked in the past month. I have made some hazelnut chocolate ones (recipe will be in my ebook), some almond and chop chips ones and I made these Orange, Almond & Chia Cookies twice this week. The first ones were a little burned but still super delicious so I made another batch today to share on my blog. I feel bad for not having shared any recipes for a while and I hope I'll be forgiven with this delicious recipe!

These cookies are honestly really really good- they taste buttery and are a little chewy on the inside and can be made in 5 minutes. Children could make these too. And they are healthy, vegan, paleo and gluten free.




The funny thing is when I was trying to take pictures of the cookies sitting on my living room floor next to a window I got stuck! My big twin pregnancy belly was preventing me from getting up. In the end after eating quite a few cookies sitting on the floor! I managed to get up pulling myself with the window handle and doing the hardest lunge of my life! The weight of these babies is really making it hard to get up. Lucky I had snacks haha
