About the Book:
With consumers today focused on making healthier choices, even for dessert, ancient and whole grains have been rediscovered. This timely cookbook offers mouthwatering recipes and gorgeous photographs of cookies featuring grains and flours such as whole wheat, barley, oats, and coconut, from regions including the Middle East, Asia, and Central America. Home bakers will enjoy trying Oatmeal-Chocolate Cookies, Pistachio and Brown Rice Sables, Almond-Hazelnut Drops, and Cashew Steel Cut Oat Cookies, and more.
