Chunky Chewy Whole Grain Toffee Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Cookies

These cookies are packed full of nutritious whole grains like spelt, KAMUT® wheat flour and rolled oats. But don’t let that fool you. It doesn’t taste healthy at all. In fact they have the hearty chunky chew of a totally bad for you cookie. KAMUT® wheat flour and spelt are “ancient grains” that haven’t been crossbred for disease resistance like hard red wheat (the grain that regular all purpose flour comes from). Some people who are allergic or intolerant to wheat can tolerate them, but they do have gluten in them so they aren’t suitable for celiac or people with severe gluten/wheat allergies. Check with your doctor if you are unsure. Chef Brad recommends that you grind the flour yourself from the grains but most of us don’t have a grain mill or a very expensive mixer. That said, you can find the grains and the flours in the health food stores or via mail order.
