Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 180C. Line two oven trays with baking paper. Soak the chia seeds in the water and lemon juice for 15 minutes.
2. Cube butter and bring to room temperature.
3. Using an electric beater, cream butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. Add chia seed mix and stir to combine.
4. Sift in flour and stir with a wooden spoon. Mix to form a soft dough. Form tablespoons of the dough into 12 small balls and place on the baking trays 4cm apart.
5. Use a fork to slightly flatten each ball. Place in fridge for 20 minutes to firm up.
6. Once firm, bake for 15 minutes then reduce oven to 100C and bake for a further 10 minutes until cookies are lightly golden and slightly firm on top.
7. Allow to cool for 5 minutes on the trays before transferring to a wire cooling rack.
8. Store in an airtight container. One cookie is one serve.
