Simple Chocolate Chip Cookies

by

These chocolate chip cookies are so delicious and developed for whole grain flour.

There has been so many times that I have went to make cookies using a recipe that came highly recommended only for it to melt into a puddle on the pan! This is because when converting to whole grain, you actually need more soft white wheat flour than you would all purpose!

If you are a whole grain baker, use this recipe! It comes out perfect every time and is made with such simple ingredients. If you use all purpose flour, remove 1/3 cup of the flour from this recipe or it will be too dry and dense.

This recipe is not overly sweet. If you like super sweet cookies, you may want to add a bit more sugar. I prefer a cookie that is not overpowering with sweetness! I enjoy tasting the salt, butter, and mild grain flavor.

I use my Harvest NutriMill to grind my berries. Use soft white wheat berries to get a lighter texture. Use any canned fruit you have on hand. I’ve used blueberries, strawberries, plums, and peaches. They’re all delicious!
