The key to procastibaking, Gardner explains, is that it’s astress reliever, not stress inducing.
This is Gardner’s recipe for Breakfast Cookies, one of the healthier treats in the book.
They also make for a great 3 p.m. pick-me-up to power you through the rest of your day.
In a small bowl, whisk together the flaxseeds and water.
Set aside to thicken while you assemble the rest of the ingredients.
Position a rack in the center of the oven and heat the oven to 350F.
Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and stir to combine.
Add the apples, walnuts and cranberries, and mix to incorporate.
Arrange on the prepared baking sheet 2 to 3 inches apart.
Allow the cookies to cool on the pan before transferring to a rack to finish cooling.
