1/3 cup flax seed soaked for 16-20 hours (has a jell like consistency around seeds and works like an egg for making moist smooth texture of finished cookie)

Flax seeds soaked 16-24 hours are ready to sprout and release more vitamins for the cookie.

One could just blend it up into a powder without soaking but the seeds release more enzymes and vitamins when soaked first.
