Recipe Collab: Almond Mulberry Breakfast Cookies
Outside of nursery rhymes you probably don't hear much about mulberries. These chewy fruits are similar to raisins in flavor and texture, but are lower in sugar and higher in vitamins, antioxidants and essential minerals - making them the perfect addition to your breakfast cookies. We've combined organic mulberries from Navitas Organics and Toasted Quinoa Flakes in this easy recipe.
