"This was a old classic - sort of reinvented. Now, these used to be ... and still are, a favorite easy Christmas cookie. But, they are really good anytime of the year. Sort of re-done using coconut flour and flaxseed for a bit healthier twist. Although; I still wouldn't consider them as 'Healthy.' But, they sure are good. And, they are super easy to make. Prep time does not include the time for the mix to rest in the refrigerator."

Step by Step Method

Step 1

Mix ... In a large bowl, mix together the figs, apricots or cranberries, pecans, oats, flaxseed, honey, and flour. Start out with 2 tablespoons of the flour; and, if it seems sticky or wet; add more flour. Make sure everything is well combined; then, cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate at least 1 hour up to over night. You need the mix to firm up.

Step 2

Fig Logs ... First, add the sanding sugar to a small plate; and, coconut to another. Then, I use a scoop for the mix, so they are the same size. Take your scoop of mix and roll it in your hand to make a small log. Next, roll the log in either the sugar or coconut. Transfer to a sheet pan, lined with parchment paper or foil. Then, cover your cookies with plastic or saran wrap; and, refrigerate at least a hour or longer. The longer they sit; the better they taste.

Step 3

Serve and ENJOY! ... I like to keep them in the refrigerator - I just prefer them chilled. They are a great Holiday Cookie. And, feel free to use different nuts or dried fruits. I've even used different types of honey; which can change the taste of the cookie.
