Cookies that actually crunch! For Sweetpea & everyone else that misses that satisfying crunch! I’m allergic to grains myself, but I make these for my husband and kids occasionally. They love them!

So, I was totally excited to try these and finally did. They are delicious! And really rich, probably because I added honey as well :) Little idea though, mine turned into a moist cookie dough more than a cookie. So I figure I will try to do each ingredient in the processor individualy and mix together by hand to keep some of the chunks in there as doing it all in the processor made it all more pasty than crunchy cookie-ish.

elizabethh - Yes, I realize that. I don't judge them by the fact that they are not grass grains. Just the starch content. I was very allergic to the starch. It made my histamine levels go through the roof - aka - itching all over & heart racing. But now I am able to have it again, occasionally. I've been learning Buteyko Breathing Technique & it has already reduced my histamine level enough to enjoy some of the foods I had been allergic to for years. Awesome!

strangely enough, buckwheat is actually a fruit, not a grain.

PapayaLove - did you use nice crunchy dry buckwheaties? I've made these lots of different ways, but they always have the nice crunch from the dried buckwheaties.
Perhaps the honey made them wetter than with dates. Just a thought.
