Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup spelt flour
- 1.5 cups rolled oats
- 0.75 cup brown sugar
- 0.25 cup granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup (softened) unsalted butter
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 cup raisins or dark chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the spelt flour, rolled oats, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and salt. Set aside.
In a separate large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy using a hand mixer or stand mixer.
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter-sugar mixture and continue to mix until well combined.
Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients using a spatula or wooden spoon. Mix until just combined, being careful not to overwork the dough.
If using raisins or dark chocolate chips, gently fold them into the dough.
Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of the dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Flatten each cookie slightly with the back of a spoon or your fingertips to help them bake evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8–10 minutes, or until the cookies are golden around the edges but still soft in the center.
Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy your Tasty Spelt Oatmeal Cookies with a glass of milk or a cup of tea!
