Ezekiel Cookies

Ezekiel flour is a complete protein mix of four grains and four beans. The Biblical prophet Ezekiel was able to survive for almost a year on this bread and water.

Ezekiel Flour

(Makes 2 1/4 cups)

1 cup 2 tablespoon whole wheat flour

1/2 cup 2 tablespoon spelt flour

2 tablespoons barley flour

2 tablespoon bean flour 

2 tablespoons millet, ground in a spice mill or seed grinder

2 tablespoon lentils, ground in a spice mill or seed grinder

 

This flour mix is good in batter breads, muffin and cookie recipes. The flour has less gluten than all wheat flours and does not hold its shape well without the pan. Use the paddle blade of the mixer and do not kneed as long as an all wheat dough.
