Recipe: Zucchini cacao cookies

I found a recipe here: http://www.rawmazing.com/recipes/zuccini-cacao-cookies/ and I adapted it as usual.
This recipe is a keeper! If you have children, it will help them to eat more (hidden) vegetables. Not bad...

Susan Powers, the author and owner of the Rawmazing website, is a magnificent photographer and raw food teacher. Her website photos are mouth-watering. I highly recommend it!

Zucchini Cacao Cookies

▪ 3 cups grated zucchini (I measured it, it's 250 gr.)

▪ 2 cups oat flour (raw)* (or soaked quinoa, or ground oat flakes/almonds)

▪ 3/4 cup cacao

▪ 2 apples, cored and quartered

▪ 1/2 cup agave nectar/ we used honey instead

▪ 1/3 cup water

▪ 1/4 cup olive oil (cold pressed)

1. Grate zucchini and set aside.

2. Mix together cacao and oat flour. Set aside.

3. Place apples in food processor with agave, water and olive oil. Process until smooth.

4. Stir together flour mixture and apple mixture.

5. Add to grated zucchini and stir until well combined.

6. Drop by spoonful onto 2 non-stick dehydrator sheets. Flatten slightly. Dehydrate at 62C for 1/2 hour then reduce heat to 46C and dry for 4 hours. Remove from non-stick sheets and continue to dry until done. (approx 4 more hours). If the apples are very big and juicy you’ll need longer. (We dried for 8 hours, then flipped, did one more hour, but was still soft, LOL). The result was crisp looking black coloured treats. My kids and I chewed them all in less than an hour and they are asking for more!

Makes 3 dozen.

How to publish a book with Amazon Create Space

How do you self publish a book? I am asked this question quite often now, soI have decided to put my little experience in writing to help you out. Here is the link you want: https://www.createspace.com/ I worked out lots of information after signing as much of the info only comes out after having a title etc and going through the whole process. For example the speed of the proof and the price are only found out in the very end of the order... So, let's go in order. To self publish a book you need to create an account with "Create space", which is the publishing arm of Amazon.
