Christmas is just around the corner and for those of you who are still wondering what to give to your family, colleagues, and friends, don't fret! I made this blog post especially for you! These 3 recipes we're sharing are definitely healthy and easy-to-make.

1. Crispy Gluten-Free Oatmeal Cookies

Who doesn't like cookies, right? It doesn't matter if you're giving these away to kids or adults — anyone would surely love a taste of guilt-free
goodness!

Ingredients:

1 ½ cups uncooked gluten free rolled oats

¾ cups all-purpose gluten free flour (I made my own blend of ¼ cup millet flour, ¼ cup sorghum flour and ¼ cup tapioca flour whisked together)

¼ tsp cinnamon

¼ tsp baking soda

pinch salt

½ cup maple syrup

¼ cup avocado oil

¼ tsp vanilla extract

1 Tbsp ground flaxseed

½ cup applesauce

½ cup raisins or chocolate chips

Directions:

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.

Mix all ingredients together in a medium bowl.

Place rounded spoonfuls of dough onto a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for about 8 minutes, until light golden brown. Remove from oven and let the cookies finish baking on the cookie sheet for about 5 more minutes. Cool completely before storing in a
covered container.

2. Multi-Seed Bars

Thinking of giving something healthy, yummy, and high in protein? Enjoy and share these yummy high-protein multi-seed bars that are easy to make!

Ingredients:

3 cups assorted toasted seeds (sesame seeds, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds)

⅔ cup brown rice crispy cereal

½ cup raisins

½ cup apple juice sweetened dried cranberries or cherries

A few pinches of sea salt

⅔ cup brown rice syrup OR ⅓ cup brown rice syrup + ⅓ cup maple syrup

½ teaspoon sea vegetable powder

Instructions:

In a large bowl mix together the seeds, brown rice crispy cereal, dried fruit, sea salt, and sea vegetable powder.

Heat the brown rice syrup in a small saucepan over medium heat until it bubbles. Continue to cook for five minutes over medium-low heat.

Pour the hot syrup over the seed mixture and stir well. Transfer to a 9 x 13" glass lasagna pan that has been lined with parchment paper. Press the
mixture firmly down with moist hands. Set aside to cool for 30 minutes before cutting into bars.
