    They look fantastic, and they use spelt flour. I've been meaning to use my stash of spelt in something. I'm glad to see a vegan treat recipe that 1) doesn't involve a ton of oil or sugar and 2) doesn't require one ingredient that you can't find anywhere.

    Thanks for sharing, and I'll be passing along as well.

    Bonus points for the word scuffin, for sure.

    Those look good. I check her blog often for recipes. I find that a lot of the vegan recipes are very high in calories.....but also more filling and certainly more nutritious. Looking at this recipe I think the cookies must be quite large......pretty much like having 2 muffins. I guess they could fit in well as a snack with tea or a breakfast with a glass of amazing grass chocolate superfood. Thanks for the linking the recipe. Did you find it satisfying as a snack or meal? Nice she lists cals and so forth. There was a vegan recipe I have wanted to make......a lemon, nut desset but it is tiny and 800 calories.....I think I will have to give it a miss.

    I used applesauce in place of some of the olive oil as well
