I love baking with ancient grains, they tend to have a more complex flavor and are higher in nutrients than modern grains. Spelt has a delightful nutty flavor that adds an amazing characteristic to baked goods.

These oatmeal raisin spelt cookies are sweetened with coconut sugar and honey, which adds a rich complexity and earthiness to the cookies. They make a great breakfast cookie. They are whole grain, all natural, have no refined sugar and have healthy monounsaturated fats from the olive oil. Each cookie is under 120 calories and they taste incredible.

That’s a breakfast cookie in my book.  If you haven’t baked with spelt yet, these cookies are a great place to start and just might get you hooked to use it more often.

Spelt is an ancient grain that was used in the biblical days. It is more nutritious than modern day wheat and it is more easily digested.

It does have gluten in it but some people find they can tolerate the gluten in spelt much better than modern wheat. The best thing about spelt is the flavor. Whole wheat spelt has a sweet, almost nutty flavor that makes anything you create taste wonderful.

Ingredients

  • 1-½ cups spelt flour 180 grams
  • 2 cups rolled oats 160 grams

Instructions

  • Pre-heat the oven to 350° and line a cookie sheet with parchment paper or spray it with non-stick cooking spray.

  • Scoop out 2 tablespoons of dough and drop onto prepared cookie sheet (I use a cookie scoop that holds 2 tablespoons). Space the cookie dough about 1 ½ inches apart to leave room for a little spreading.

Honestly I was disappointed. Texture too dry, almost saw dust appearance. Not as sweet as my daughter thought, so that's a matter of taste buds, but they were larger than i expected . I followed the recipe 99% as I substituted mini chocolate chips instead of raisins. I compared to other recipes and I the difference was having 2 eggs vs no eggs. So I would give it a 6/10 Also I was comparing them to a cookie that I had purchased at the health food store, that had less ingredients and very tasty. Wish I had their recipe. Well, it's fun trying out new recipes. !
