Hearty Cookies

These cookies are gluten-free, allergy-friendly and processed sugar free. They are perfect to tuck a couple in a freezer bag, tightly wrapped, with your dry ingredient backpacking recipes. They work well as a snack and even as a no-cook breakfast. Eat within the first 2 days out on the trail for best taste, as coconut flour can absorb moisture in the air.
