As a kid, I spent countless hours picking dandelions and putting them in cups, leaving them on the kitchen counter as a surprise for my mom. Kids LOVE dandelions, after all, they are some of the only flowers they are allowed to pick whenever they will. I thought this sounded like a great project for kids, and can't wait to try these cookies at the first sight of these flowers ! From what I've heard, these are NOT very sweet. Got this from Prep time does not include picking dandelions! Ingredients:
1/2 cup vegetable oil |
1/2 cup honey |
2 eggs |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
1 cup unbleached flour (whole wheat is fine) |
1 cup dry oatmeal |
1/2 cup dandelion flowers (just the yellow part...pull off the green part) |
Directions:
1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
2. Mix the oil and honey and then beat in the 2 eggs and vanilla.
3. Remove the yellow flower parts from the green parts (compost the green parts).
4. Stir in the flour, oatmeal, and dandelion flowers.
5. Drop the batter by tablespoonfuls onto an oiled cookie sheet.
6. Bake for 10-15 minutes.
