My sister gave me this delicious recipe.
I slightly modified it, replacing the sugar with honey in order to make the cookies even more “rustic”.

Pearl spelt cookies

  • Preparation time: 40 minutes
  • Ingredients for 40 cookies
  • Difficulty: Easy recipe

  • Ingredients
  • 7 oz (200 grams) of pearl spelt flour
  • 4 oz (100 grams) of all-purpose flour
  • 3 oz (80 grams) of honey
  • 2 teaspoons (10 grams) of baking powder
  • 1 pinch of salt
  • 1 egg
  • 2 tablespoons (30 ml) of hot milk
  • 3 tablespoons (50 ml) of seed oil
  • Grated lemon zest
  • Brown sugar to taste
  1. Instructions
  2. Preheat the oven to 350°F.
  3. Measure the flours and the baking powder into a bowl, stir to combine, then sieve into a mixing bowl.
  4. In a bowl, mix the egg with honey, hot milk, vanilla seeds, lemon zest, and seed oil. Gradually add the sieved flours and a pinch of salt.
  5. Create a roll with the dough about 2 cm thick and cut it into form sticks about 5 cm in length. Sprinkle the surface of the sticks with brown sugar.
  6. Place the biscuits onto a baking sheet covered with parchment paper and bake them in the oven until golden brown.

Tips to ensure the success of the dish:

  • The dough is similar to short crust pastry.
  • The cookies should be placed spaced apart on the baking tray because they will expand during cooking.
  • The cookies should not darken too much, so it is better to check their cooking every now and then. My oven takes about twenty minutes.
