Spelt flakes cookies

These cookies area really delicious, especially for breakfast: they are energetic, healthy and just too good!
I made two versions of them: one with raisins and the other one with coconut and chocolate; here are both recipes!

With raisins

Ingredients (for 15 cookies):

- 180 g. butter
- 1 Tbsp. Vanilla extract
- 190 g. cane sugar
- 2 organic eggs
- a pinch of salt
- 160 g. flour
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 200 g. raisins
- 200 g. spelt flakes (you can also use oatmeal)

With coconut and chocolate

Ingredients (for 15 cookies):

- 180 g. butter
- 1 Tbsp. Vanilla extract
- 190 g. cane sugar
- a pinch of salt
- 2 organic eggs
- 160 g. flour
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 100 g. coconut flakes
- 100 g. dark chocolate drops
- 200 g. spelt flakes (you can also use oatmeal)

In a large bowl whip the butter with the sugar and salt. While whipping, add the eggs one by one.
Add the flour, spelt flakes, baking powder, baking soda, vanilla and finally the raisins (or coconut and chocolate drops), mix well.

Preheat the oven (180°).
Meanwhile make 15 cookies out of the mixture and put them on 2-3 baking pans (covered with baking paper).
Bake the cookies for about 15 minutes.
Remove the cookies from the baking pans only when completely cold!
