Crunchy and delicious, these cookies are perfect for a mid-afternoon treat or after school snack.

Crunchy Spelt Raisin Cookies [vegan]

These cookies were a big hit with my kids (and hubby). Crunchy and delicious, they are perfect for a mid-afternoon treat or after school snack. They are easy to make and also ideal as a home-baked gift.

Spelt is one of the most ancient crops, packed with nutrients (plus fibre and protein).

These Crunchy Spelt Raisin Cookies are a healthy & yummy alternative to store-bought cookies.

You can buy spelt flakes, ground chia seeds and coconut oil in your local health store.
