Sprouted Chocolate Chip Cookies and Why Sprouted Flour is Healthy For You!

Sprouted Chocolate Chip Cookies

So I have many many varieties of homemade chocolate chip cookies because my girls just absolutely love them and so do I!  We just love dipping them in fresh milk.  Don’t you just love my daughter’s fresh milk mustache in the picture above? 🙂  I have created an almond flour chocolate chip cookie, a coconut flour chocolate chip cookie and now a sprouted flour chocolate chip cookie.

So why sprouted flour?  There are so many health benefits to sprouted flour.  Here are just a few.

  • Easier to Digest – Sprouting breaks down the starches in grains into simple sugars so your body can digest them like a vegetable (like a tomato, not a potato).
  • Increased Vitamin C – Sprouting produces vitamin C.
  • Increased Vitamin B – Sprouting increases the vitamin B content (B2, B5, and B6).
  • Increased Carotene – Sprouting increases the carotene up to eight times.
  • Increased Enzymes are actually produced during sprouting.
  • Reduction of Anti-nutrients – Sprouting neutralizes enzyme inhibitors and phytic acid, which is a substance present in the bran of all grains that inhibits absorption of calcium, magnesium, iron, copper, and zinc.
According to Sally Fallon Morell, president of The Weston A Price Foundation and author of Nourishing Traditions (page 112 of Nourishing Traditions), “The process of germination not only produces Vitamin C but also changes the composition of grains and seeds in numerous beneficial ways.  Sprouting increases Vitamin B content, especially B2, B5, and B6.  Carotene increases dramatically – sometimes eightfold.  Even more important, sprouting neutralizes phytic acid, a substance present in the bran of all grains that inhibits absorption of calcium, magnesium, iron, copper, and zinc; sprouting also neutralizes enzyme inhibitors present in all seeds.  These inhibitors can neutralize our own precious enzymes in the digestive tract.

 

A portion of the starch in grain is transformed into sugar. Sprouting inactivates aflatoxins, potent carcinogens found in grains.  Finally, numerous enzymes that help digestion are produced during the germination process.”

I should also note that it is important to use your flour quickly after the grains have been sprouted and then ground into flour.  You can prolong the life of the flour by storing it in the freezer.  I am in the process of learning how to sprout my own grains and then grind them into flour, but in the meantime, I found an excellent company that sprouts to order.  That’s right…they will not grind the sprouted grains into flour until they receive your order and then the ship it so you receive it quickly (usually within 2-3 days) and then alls you have to do is keep it in the freezer and it will last over 6 months with its nutritional value still intact.  To Your Health Sprouted Flour Co. has returned to the traditional practice of sprouting grains in order to render them more nutritious and digestible.  They nurture the grains in their facility, allow them to sprout, then dry them at a very low temperature, to maintain precious vitamins, minerals, and enzymes.  Then when the flour is ordered, they will grind the flour and ship it right to your front door.  Again, I am not making any money by endorsing this product, I  just love their story on how they started small and gradually grew without compromising quality.  I e-mailed them to make sure their grains were certified organic and GMO-free and the quickly responded back that they were.  I use their flour to make pancakes, muffins, and baked goods.

Another company I use when purchasing sprouted flour is Shiloh Farms Sprouted Flour.  This is also a great company to purchase sprouted flour from and has the same philosophy as To Your Health Sprouted Flour Co.  This will give you several options if you want to purchase some sprouted flour on line.

 

So this recipe is so easy that my daughter made them and I just photographed her as she made them.  Here are the simple steps for you to follow.  Even the neighbors enjoyed these delicious cookies 🙂

    I made these tonight. I’m new to baking with sprouted flour, so I have to get used to the texture difference. I was pretty happy with how these turned out, though. Thanks for posting this recipe.

    hallecottis Real_Food_Freak -*  I really like my cookies to be soft. Is there a better flour to make them that way?

    I’m wondering if using raw honey in place of sugar would work in this recipe?

    Excited to try these!

      Hey Kim,

      Unfortunately, it would make the dough too runny. You could try dry honey if you’d like.
