Peppermint Chocolate Chip Einkorn Cookies

by Georgie Fox
Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

Peppermint chocolate cookies are a holiday classic! Einkorn is a good grain to use for cookies, due to it’s texture and taste.

Einkorn is an ancient grain that is supposed to be more digestible due to it’s properties. The wheat of today contains 42 chromosomes, while einkorn contains only 14 chromosomes.

For a better cookie taste and texture, refrigerate and cover for 30 minutes before placing batter on parchment paper.

I used Frontier brand peppermint flavoring, but you can use any edible peppermint flavoring on the market that’s made for baking.

If you want to turn this recipe into double chocolate peppermint cookies, add a 1/2 cup of cocoa powder to the batter.
