Try this one.
Based on cookies from Heirloom Brewing. (Which has some mighty fine brews, too.)

Of course, the “bakeshop’s” cookies were a bit lovelier and bakery looking. I love that they are using a brewing by product with the spent spelt.
I did fall in love with the flavors of these little bites, though.
Now the big question of the day…how are these with beer?

Healthy and delicious! Wholewheat, oats and nuts..fit for the breakfast!
I love it when we can rationalize cookies for breakfast!
How much vanilla and maple extract??
None, actually. I didn’t have any vanilla so I left it out…..
YUM! What cookie monster wouldn’t love these cookies!
Especially those Iowa monsters!
Your two Iowa cookie monsters say these are a hit. Maybe best ever!! They did not last long when they came out of the oven. About as nutritious as a cookie can be. I used 1/2 teaspoon each of vanilla and maple flavoring.
Your photo you texted me was much better than mine!
Bakery-smakery! I think your cookies look amazing–plump and tempting.
Thanks, Deb!
For the second batch I added this instead of the cardamon.
1/2 cinnamon, 1/4 cloves and 1/4 nutmeg. I liked it much better.
