Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F, and line one large or two small baking sheets with parchment.
- In a small bowl warm the coconut butter in the microwave until just barely softened. Measure to make sure you have ¼ cup. Alternatively, warm it in a small pan on the stove. Add the peanut butter, maple syrup, coconut sugar, milk, and vanilla, and whisk until smooth.
- In a mixing bowl whisk the flour, baking powder, and baking soda.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until a dough forms. Fold in the peanuts and chunks of chocolate.
- Scoop about two rounded tablespoons of dough into your hand and flatten with your palms, forming into a cookie shape. Make sure the nuts and chocolate are evenly dispersed so the cookies hold together. Place on the prepared pans about two inches apart. The cookies will spread slightly.
- Bake for 12 to 14 minutes or until the bottoms are golden and the chocolate is melted. Let the cookies to cool on the pans for 5 minutes, then transfer to cooling racks.
Notes
- Once cool, store spelt cookies at room temperature in an airtight container for up to 4 days. Cookies also freeze well; allow an hour or two to thaw before serving.
- Buying coconut butter can be quite expensive, but if you have a food processor you can make your own by processing dried, unsweetened coconut flakes until creamy. You can find many recipes online with helpful tips.
