Ingredients for Crunchy Cookies
As I mentioned earlier, for this preparation I used a wholemeal einkorn flour ground with stone, which gives a rustic and authentic taste.
Important note: If you decide to use another type of flour, you need to pay close attention to the consistency. Each flour has a different absorption capacity: if the mixture is too moist add a bit of flour, if it is too dry, add some tablespoons of water until you get the right elasticity.
- 1.75 cups flour
- 0.5 cups powdered sugar (or granulated)
- 3.5 tbsp seed oil
- 3 tbsp water
- 1.5 tsp baking powder
- 0.25 cups dark chocolate chips (or flakes)
Steps for Crunchy Cookies
Pour the flour, sugar, and baking powder into a bowl, then mix well with a fork.
Add also the oil and water, working the ingredients until you create a homogeneous dough, I also added dark chocolate chips. If you use another type of flour and the dough is too moist, add flour; otherwise, add a little water.
Once we have mixed all our ingredients, create a log, flattening the sides slightly and lengthening the shape with your hands.
With a knife, cut the log creating cookies about 0.6 inches thick and place them on a baking tray lined with parchment paper.
Bake at 356°F in a preheated static oven for 20 minutes. Make sure they are well browned to ensure maximum crunchiness.
Let them cool completely before serving, so they reach their ideal consistency.
I hope you like this recipe and that your cookies turn out crunchy and fragrant just like mine. Don’t forget to let me know how they turned out!
