Sunflower Cookies Tips
How do you store sunflower cookies?
Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3-4 days. If you want to keep your sunflower cookies longer, you can freeze them for up to 6 months.
Can you use unsalted sunflower kernels instead of salted in sunflower cookies?
Using unsalted sunflower kernels is a great way to reduce the sodium content—but the flavor may not be as robust. There are other ways to make these cookies your own. Omit the coconut if it’s not your thing, or replace it with extra oatmeal (to make them more like these
oatmeal cookies). Try mixing in raisins, dried cranberries, chocolate or butterscotch chips, toffee bits, or nuts. You can also dip half of each cookie in melted dark or white chocolate.
Where can you find sunflower kernels?
You can find sunflower kernels in your grocer’s snack aisle, or near the nuts and dried fruits. Browse these
