Heart-Healthy Oatmeal Cookies
This is a delicious way to get heart-healthy fibre into your diet. The “Belly Friendly” muesli mixture contains nuts and dried fruit and Finnish rolled oats with soluble beta-glucan to help reduce the risk of coronary heart disease and lower cholesterol.
Oats also contain anti-inflammatory avenanthramides to help combat disease. Add a cupful of freshly ground flaxseeds with plant lignans and ALA (alphalinolenic acid) to increase cardiovascular benefits. Make sure it is freshly ground, as flax oxidises quickly in the tropics. The sweetness in the recipe comes from a combination of coconut nectar sugar which has a low G.I. and raisins which are high in sugar, but also packed full of fibre, vitamins and minerals. Add the goodness of organic grass-fed butter and organic feed eggs and you have a healthy, sweet treat.
