Spelt Chocolate Cookies

Description

Spelt is a delicious alternative to white wheat flour as whilst it's not gluten free, it is lower in gluten. Not suitable for people with Coeliac Disease, though might be a good alternative to wheat, if you are gluten sensitive.
Spelt has a nutty flavour and brings out a darker colour when baking.

Spelt is also high in protein and fibre and will keep you feeling fuller for longer.
