Those peanut butter cookies are crisp and slightly crumbly, and have an fantastic peanut butter taste. Feel free to replace rolled spelt flakes and spelt flour with oats and wheat flour. The recipe has been adapted from Delicious Magazine.

  • 100 g Butter, softened
  • 180 g Crunchy peanut butter
  • 80 g Sesame paste
  • 150 g Light soft brown sugar
  • 1 Large free-range egg
  • A few drops of vanilla extract
  • 125 g Rolled spelt flakes
  • 80 g Raisins
  • 125 g Spelt flour #630
  • 1 tsp Baking soda
  1. Preheat the oven to 160C/320F. Line 2 large baking trays with parchment paper. Beat the softened butter, peanut butter and sesame paste in a bowl with a wooden spoon. Add the sugar and beat again until well mixed.
  2. Add in egg and vanilla to the peanut butter mixture. Beat again with the wooden spoon. Add the rolled spelt flakes and raisins to the mixture, sift over the flour and baking soda and mix well.
  3. Put large spoonfuls of the mixture onto the trays, spacing slightly apart, and bake for 20 minutes until light golden. Remove from the oven. Leave to firm up on their trays for a few minutes, then transfer to wire racks to cool completely. Store in an airtight container in a cool place for up to 3 days.

School is about to begin and that usually coincides with my cookie cravings. These are soooo craveable- is that a word? I have everything but the rolled spelt, which I've had a hard time finding here. Oatmeal will have to do. Thanks for this wonderful variation of one of my favorite cookies! :)

tasteofbeirut 4/9/11 23:36

I have made tahini-based cookies before, but never cookies with three types of butter~ sounds wonderful actually! Now I have to get familiar with spelt flour, which I have seen in your site so often and still never used.

[Reply]

The Duo Dishes 13/9/11 19:19

We've never used tahini in a baked good, but that's a good idea. It's a nice way to add flavor underneath the layers.
