I like good karma as much as anyone but what I'm all about these days is the delicious karma! Behold my latest obsession: Karma Bakery's chocolate chunk walnut cookie. You can meditate on it or you can get yourself one of their cookies and experience true bliss.
Karma Bakery, out of Auburn, is a small operation run by Karmen Canestaro. With a mission that is all about good health, local and organic ingredients, and putting out real, delicious food, Karma Bakery is quickly becoming the darling of the CNY Regional Market.
I've not had one of the beautiful multi-grain loaves they sell but I'm all over the cookies. I love the banana nut and peanut butter versions but the chocolate chunk walnut cookie is so good, it has me at the market before 7:00 am to pick up or reserve my stash before they sell out. There is something about the slightly nutty taste of spelt flour, ground oats, walnuts and slabs of dark chocolate chunks that takes me to a happy place. There are other healthy ingredients in there like flax meal and maple syrup (no refined sugar or agave--check out their website to read why). I can serve them to my vegan friends without worry and to my non-vegan friends without apology.
All I know is that after a busy day of work, a long run or other training session, and the other things life throws my way, sitting down to a cup of tea and a bite of one of these cookies is the best karma there is.
You can buy Karma Bakery's cookies and breads at the Regional Market on Saturdays from 7am-1pm and beginning this week you should also be able to find them at the Syracuse Real Food Co-op.
I agree!!! I bought the banana nut and fruity almond a couple weeks back. They were delicious and I was so impressed with the healthy ingredient list.
