(Some of the less well-known ingredients may be found at Naturally Yours.)
2 C. spelt four
1/2 C. butter
1/2 C. coconut oil (all coconut oil - one cup - can be used in place of butter)
2 C. sucanat, a less processed brown sugar
2 Tbs. vanilla
2 eggs, or mix 3 Tbs. applesauce, 1 Tbs. water, 2 Tbs. psyllium husk as egg replacer
2-1/2 C. oat flour or blend up oatmeal
1 Tsp. baking soda
1 Tsp. baking powder
Chocolate or carob chips, to your liking
1 C. coconut flakes
Optional: Add slivered almonds or other nuts, raisins, dates or other dried fruit, sesame seeds or flax seeds.
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
Mix butter, oil, sugar vanilla and eggs until creamy. In a separate bowl mix the dry ingredients, only until moist. Combine the dry and wet mixtures and then add the chips, coconut flakes and other extra ingredients you like. Place one-inch balls of dough on greased cookie sheet and bake 6-8 minutes, being careful not to overbake.
Cool for two minutes on cookie sheet before placing on wire racks - a secret to making moist cookies.
