Vegan Himalayan Tartary Buckwheat Chocolate Chip Cookies

These delicious vegan Himalayan Tartary Buckwheat chocolate chip cookies are a scrumptious treat! The best part is they’re packed with nutrients.

Well I’ve never met a single person in my life who doesn’t like chocolate chip cookies, though I’m sure they’re out there, but they must be rare.

Anyway, I’ve been rocking this vegan recipe forever, but only recently with Himalayan Tartary Buckwheat (HTB) onboard.

That’s because Tartary, in case you haven’t heard, is an exceptional seed. It rocks four bioactive compounds—rutin, quercetin, luteolin, and hesperidin—and a powerhouse free radical scavenger that’s considered pretty rare.

It also stacks vitamins, minerals, protein, fiber, and immense prebiotics for your gut. According to Dr. Jeffrey Bland of Big Bold Health it’s “the most immuneoactive, nutrient-dense plant yet discovered.”

Well I’m certainly glad I discovered it for delicious recipes like this one. 🤎 😋

According to one report, HTB promotes more energy, better sleep, enhanced cognition, and improved digestion.

It also offsets the effects of sugary treats because it’s bioactive—it metabolizes fats. In fact some folks use it in multiple forms and as a weight loss aid.

As for me, I love the whole delicious combo in this recipe including chocolate, almond flour, and walnuts.

Here’s what you’ll need (recipe card below):

Equipment

• Mixing bowls.
• Baking pan.
• Cutting board.
• Flatware/cutlery.
• Knife set.
• Oven mitts.
• Electric mixer.
• Saucepan.
• Spatula.
• Cookie jar.

Ingredients

• 1 cup organic flour.
• 2 tbsp HTB powder.
• 1 cup date sugar.
• 1 chia egg.
• 1/2 tsp baking soda.
• 1/2 cup vegan butter (melted or soft).
• 1/2 tsp pink salt.
• 11/2 tsp vanilla extract.
• 1 cup chocolate chips.
• 1 cup walnuts.

Since HTB has a powerful taste, I typically blend it with other gluten-free flours like oat, almond, sorghum, millet, or bean. Another favorite, and especially in cookies, is organic coconut flour. It’s oh so fine and irresistibly sweet.

How to Make a Chia Egg

To make one chia egg mix 1 tablespoon of ground or soaked whole organic chia seed with 3 tablespoons of filtered water, wait for 10 minutes, mix again, then use.

Vegan egg substitutes are widely available, but chia is OG. It’s a complete vegan protein with all nine essential amino acids.

• In another bowl mix melted or soft Earth Balance and sugar until smooth.
• Beat in the chia egg, salt, and sugar.
• Add the flour mix and stir until smooth.
• Stir in the chips and nuts until blended.

The chocolate and walnuts in this recipe boost heart-health, gut-health, brain-health, and more. And if you add a little flax to the recipe, it’s healthier yet! 🤎 😋
