Einkorn Chocolate Chip Cookies
Einkorn chocolate chip cookies are classic, chewy cookies filled with chocolate chips and 100% ancient grains. This no-fuss recipe only needs a 15 minute rest on the counter before baking.
Servings 22 cookies
Ingredients
- ½ cup (113 g) unsalted butter melted
- ½ cup (106 g) brown sugar
- ¼ cup (50 g) granulated sugar
- 1 large egg room temperature
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 ¾ cups (175 g) einkorn flour
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 cup (170 g) semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350℉ and line a baking sheet with parchment paper (do not grease your baking sheet, this causes the cookies to spread more). Set aside.
- In a large bowl, add melted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar. Stir to combine. Add egg and vanilla extract and stir until incorporated.
- In a separate bowl, sift together the einkorn flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually stir dry ingredients into butter mixture until just combined.
- Add chocolate chips and stir until just combined.
- Allow dough to rest for 15 minutes to allow einkorn flour to absorb liquids in the dough.
- Divide dough into 18 balls (1.5 tablespoons each) and place 2 inches apart onto prepared baking sheet. Bake for about 12-14 minutes, or until lightly browned and set across the tops.
- Allow to cool for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- Mix-in variations: Substitute some or all of the chocolate chips with your favorite mix-ins like butterscotch chips, white chocolate chips, or chopped walnuts.
- Cookie storage: Cookies will keep for 5-7 days in a sealed container. To help keep cookies fresh, place a slice of bread in the container with the cookies. Replace the bread slice as needed.
- Freezing: Cookies can be frozen for up to 3 months. Allow to thaw on the countertop for 1 hour to bring to room temperature.
