Adapted from an “Eat Shrink and be Merry” recipe. These cookies are not overly sweet and have great spice. I made them with only whole wheat flour and it turned out great.

Ingredients
  • 3/4 cup whole wheat flour
  • 1/3 cup raw whole wheat flour (less worked flour, but you can use all whole wheat
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 2 tsp ground cinnamon, divided
  • 1/2 tsp ground ginger
  • 1/4 tsp ground allspice and salt
  • 2 tbs granulated sugar
  • 1 cup brown sugar (not packed)
  • 1/3 cup peanut butter
  • 3 tbs margerine
  • 2 tbs honey
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla

Directions
  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray a large cookie sheet with cooking spray and set aside.
  2. In a medium bowl, stir together both flours, baking soda, 1 tsp cinnamon, ginger, allspice and salt. Set aside.
  3. In another medium bowl, beat together brown sugar, peanut butter and butter on medium speed of electric mixer for about 1 minute.
  4. Add molasses, egg and vanilla. Beat again until smooth.
  5. Using a wooden spoon, stir flour mixture into peanut butter mixture. You will be making a stiff dough.
  6. Combine granulated sugar and remaining 1 tsp cinnamon in a shallow small bowl.
  7. Using your hands, shape dough into 1 1/2-inch balls. Roll balls in cinnamon-sugar mixture.
  8. Place on cookie sheet at least 2 inches apart (they spread a lot when baking). Flatten cookies slightly using a fork.
  9. Bake cookies for 9 minutes.
  10. Remove cookies from oven and immediately transfer from pan to a wire rack to cool.
