Crunchy Flaky Einkorn Cookies {or Crackers}

Prep Time15 minutes
Cook Time15 minutes
Course: Snack
Author: Valeria - Beets 'n Bones blog

Ingredients

  • 1 cup einkorn flour all-purpose or whole grain
  • 4 Tbsp (55g) cold butter, cubed
  • 1/2 cup (100g) farmers cheese (how to make farmers cheese)
  • 1/8 tsp salt

FOR COOKIE TOPPING

  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon

FOR CRACKERS TOPPING

  • Sprinkle salt or better - fleur de sel

Instructions

  • Pre-heat oven to 350ºF (180ºC).
  • Pulse einkorn flour and butter in a food processor (I use mini) a couple of times, until you see crumbs.
  • Add farmers cheese and salt, and pulse until dough starts to come together.
  • Transfer to a floured work surface, form a ball and roll it out about 1/8 of an inch tall (you can make it thicker or thinner, it will be good any which way).
  • Cut out shapes (I used a 2.5" biscuit cutter). Re-roll the scraps until you have none left.
  • Place the cookies on a parchment paper lined cookie sheet.
  • Toss brown sugar and cinnamon together, and sprinkle on top of each cookie (or grind sugar and cinnamon together in a coffee grinder to get finer consistency, you would use less that way, and it looks prettier). Skip this step if you making crackers.
  • Bake for 10-15 minutes.

Notes

I normally make two batches of these, because they disappear way too quickly. You can use sprouted flours, as well as whole ground rye.
