This recipe comes from the blog Domestic Affair. These are free of wheat and refined sugar, and are similar to shortbread in consistency.
Ingredients:
2 cups spelt flour
1/3 cup flax seed
1 -1 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1/2 cup maple syrup
1/2 cup sunflower oil
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. In a large bowl, combine flour, flax seeds, cinnamon and salt. Pour in syrup and oil and mix just until all the flour's been absorbed.
2. Allow the dough to sit for 5-10 minutes before rolling into walnut-sized balls (or slightly larger) and placing them on a lightly oiled cookie sheet.
3. Press down on each ball gently with you index and middle finger - they'll flatten and you'll make a nice wavy impression in the cookie.
4. Slide in the oven and bake for 13 minutes. Allow to cool on a rack, or eat 'em warm with a tall glass of non-dairy milk.
