Why These Ingredients Work

Step-by-Step Recipe Method

Step 1: Warm the Honey

Add Organic Honey to a small pan and warm it slightly.
Do not boil.
The warmth helps it mix evenly with the dry ingredients and creates a beautiful caramel-like flavor during baking.

Step 2: Prepare the Dry Mixture

In a large mixing bowl, combine:

• Ragi flour
• Rolled oats
• Pumpkin seeds
• Sunflower seeds
• Flax seeds
• Rock salt

Mix thoroughly.

Add chopped cranberries and vanilla extract.

Step 3: Form the Dough

Pour the warm honey and coconut oil into the dry mixture.
Mix using a spatula or your hands until the dough begins to come together.
If the mixture feels dry, add one tablespoon of warm water at a time.
The dough should feel soft, pliable, and easy to shape.

Step 4: Shape the Cookies

Preheat the oven to 160°C.
Line a baking tray with parchment paper.
Roll small portions of dough into balls and gently flatten them into cookie shapes.
Arrange them evenly on the tray.

Step 5: Bake

Bake until the edges turn lightly golden.

Allow the cookies to cool completely.

They become crispier as they cool.
