Golden Quinoa Chocolate Chip Cookies

Even though it's summer there is still a year round need in our homes for freshly baked cookies. These tasty cookies incorporate cooked Flourist Golden Quinoa, which is yet another reason to have batch cooked grains on hand. Experiment with cooked Flourist Farro or Flourist Wheat Berries too. The trick? Get up early and bake in the morning, with plenty of time before the house heats up. Plus, that means warm cookies for breakfast too. 

These cookies are insanely flavourful when made with either our Flourist Sifted Red Spring Wheat Flour or Flourist Sifted Red Fife Flour
