In a skillet, lightly roast the oats and flour by stirring together until toasty smelling. Add in all the ingredients and mix well. Pour in enough water to get pliable dough. Use your hands to shape into cookies. Don't forget to oil your baking sheet! Bake at 350 deg. for 35 minutes.
*Why Millet?
Millet is a nutty-flavored and highly-nutritious whole grain, and it's one of the oldest foods known to humans. LIke Buckwheat and Quinoa, Millet is non-glutenous and non acid-forming, thereby making it really easy to digest and soothing on the stomach. It's also an amazing source of protein, dietary fiber, B-complex vitamins (Niacin, Riboflavin), Vitamin E- not to mention minerals! Loaded with Iron, Magnesium, Phosphorus and Potassium.
And it's so good to you: strengthens the kidneys, soothes pancreas, sweetens the breath and prevents bacterial growth in the mouth, warms you if cool and cools you if warm... now that's nice.
Sweet Weekend!
