7 or 8 cookies “It tastes just like gingerbread, yummy!” That was my mum’s answer when I asked her to taste one of these cookies and to tell me what she thought was in it:)

1½ cup walnuts, soaked for 6-8 hours
1 handful almonds, soaked for 6-8 hours
3 dried apricots, soaked for 30 minutes
4 dates, soaked for 30 minutes
2 cloves
1 tablespoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon mix of nutmeg, ginger, cardamon
1 teaspoon honey
1 teaspoon organic orange peel, finely chopped
Preparation:
Put everything except the orange peel in the food processor and process until you get a sticky, paste-like consistency.
Mix in the orange peel.
Form into cookies and dehydrate at 100°F for 10 hours or so

Yum! I made these last night, and they were so easy and taste really good, especially now that it's cold here. The flavor actually reminds me more of stollen b/c of the cardamom than gingerbread -- that's good for me, b/c i loved stollen and used to make it every year for Christmas. Thanks for giving me a satisfying substitute!
