Spelt cookies with oat flakes are rustic cookies with an intense flavor, perfect for breakfast or a light snack. They contain no butter but rice oil, which can also be replaced with a delicately flavored extra virgin olive oil, making them suitable for the lactose intolerant. These cookies are very easy to make, requiring just a bowl and a whisk. I chose einkorn spelt flour because it contains less gluten, but it can be replaced with spelt or emmer.
