How to Make Simple Fresh Milled Einkorn Chocolate Chip Cookies
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
- Line your baking sheet with parchment paper.
- I use a stand mixer for mixing up these cookies. Cream together the butter, brown sugar, and white sugar for four minutes.
- Scrape down the sides and add the eggs, one at a time. Beat well after each addition. About 2-3 minutes per egg.
- Pour in the vanilla and beat for another 2-3 minutes.
- Scrape down the sides again and add the fresh milled einkorn flour, baking soda, and salt. Mix this until just combined on low/medium-low speed.
- Stir in the chocolate chip morsels by hand.
- Drop them by rounded spoons fulls onto the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake for 8 minutes and then take them out of the oven. If 8 minutes isn’t enough for you, let them bake for 1 to 2 minutes more. I like my soft and gooey. Plus, they continue to bake on the cookie sheet when you take them out.
- Let them sit on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before letting them cool on the wire rack.
Why I Love Fresh Milled Einkorn Chocolate Chip Cookies
I have been experimenting with fresh milled flour since January, 2026 and it does take a bit to get used to after baking with all-purpose flour from the store for almost 30 years.
I love that it adds nutrients to baked goods. I am on a bit of a health kick and substituting fresh milled flour into all of my recipes is my goal. I love milling my own grain. It feels different, smells different, looks different, and bakes up differently. I feel connected to the past when using it.
These cookies are simple to make and the einkorn flour tastes delicious in them! If you are scared to try milling your own grains, I think this recipe will change your mind. It is worth trying. It is perfect for beginners and very doable.
