• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 cup white sugar
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 1 teaspoon salt

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C).

Step 2

Bake in preheated oven until lightly browned, 10 to 12 minutes.

Step 3

Mix water and flaxseed together in a bowl; soak 3 to 5 minutes.

Step 4

Beat coconut oil, white sugar, and brown sugar together with an electric mixer in a large bowl until smooth. Beat the first egg into the butter until completely blended. Add vanilla with the second egg and beat until smooth.

Step 5

Stir flour, brewer's yeast, and salt together in a separate bowl; add to the large bowl and mix until just incorporated into the coconut oil mixture forming a dough. Fold oats and cocoa nibs into the dough; roll into small balls, arrange onto baking sheets, and flatten slightly.
