Honey Flaxseed Graham Cookies
Love these honey flaxseed graham cookies! They are no sugar added, have flaxseed to provide fiber, protein and polyunsaturated fats and are a huge favorite for on-the-go snacks. They aren’t messy, don’t require much clean up and are easy for little hands to hold!

Rolling pin to easily measure depth of dough
Animal cookie cutters with stamps
Silicone Baking Mats
I tried these—yummy for adults, too!
