This morning I did our baking for the week. This one is easy, contains only honey (not sugar) and is very popular.
Ingredients:
475ml honey
2 eggs
300g butter, melted
100ml milk
10ml natural vanilla extract
500g rolled oats
100g coconut
600g wholemeal spelt flour
2 tsp bi-carb soda
1 tsp spices - eg: nutmeg and cinnamon
Directions:
Preheat oven to 170 degrees C. Beat together butter, honey, egg, milk and vanilla until creamy. Add combined dry ingredients and mix well.
Drop dessertspoonfuls onto a greased cookie sheet. Bake for approximately 12 minutes.
Makes 75 cookies approx 8cm diameter. Suitable to freeze.
I made these the other day. Except I don’t buy spelt flour so just used ordinary wholemeal flour. And I had nowhere near enough honey, so I used a combination of honey, golden syrup and molasses with a little bit of sugar in it to take the bitter edge of the molasses off. They are great! Thanks!
I am on an anti candida diet and cant have any sugar, I am only allowed to used organic honey so this recipe was perfect. Also the only flour I can have is spelt. I love these cookies so does my fiance and I make a big batch every week to keep us going!
