A delicious recipe for Chocolate Chip Cookies and a review and giveaway for 3 Jovial Einkorn Prize Packages! (Scroll to bottom to enter giveaway)
I recently tried out some new products from Jovial, a maker of Einkorn based food. Here’s their explanation of what Einkorn is:
Einkorn is the only wheat that has never been hybridized. Because of this, it is usually very well tolerated by the gluten sensitive. The gluten in einkorn lacks the high molecular weight proteins that many people can’t digest. For those sensitive to modern wheat, einkorn is a delicious alternative (but einkorn is not suitable for those with Celiac Disease). Einkorn contains roughly 30% more protein than modern wheat and more protein than any other grain, while having 15% less starch, translating to fewer carbohydrates. This increase in protein will leave you feeling more sustained and less bloated after eating einkorn.
Jovial has a lot of great products. You can check them all out here. I enjoyed trying them and especially liked the Tomato Basil crackers. It’s nice to have a quick and easy to grab healthy snack!
My favorite product was this all-purpose flour 100% Organic Einkorn. They have a lot of great recipes you can use with it like sandwich bread but I decided to be creative and make cookies because who doesn’t like a good chocolate chip cookie with a healthy twist?!
These cookies were amazing! I was surprised! And honestly pretty proud of myself too since I created the recipe based off of one of their cookie recipes. The cookies came out thick, chewy, slightly crunchy on the edges and so heavenly! My kids ate it right up and never knew it was made with the healthy Einkorn wheat flour. I haven’t tried it yet but I’m pretty sure you can sub in all-purpose or white wheat flour.
*I haven't tested it yet but I am pretty sure you can sub with all-purpose or white whole wheat flour.

Those cookies look amazing! I’ve never heard of Einkorn- interesting!
Thanks! I hadn’t heard of it until recently. It’s pretty great!
These cookies look oh so good! And wheat?! I would not feel quite so guilty for indulging!
Thanks Kirsten! 🙂
We absolutely love Einkorn! It seems to be the only wheat my family can tolerate! It’s wonderful to work with! I’d love to win this giveaway and try some of their others fabulous products! Thank you!!!
I’m so glad you like it! That’s great you found something that works for your family. Good luck on the giveaway!
Becky, no disrespect intended…the cookies look AMAZING and the recipe looks like a winner! I’ll be trying it this weekend! BUT – the name is misleading as these are NOT “whole wheat”. That Einkorn flour is all-purpose. It is white. It has been processed and does not contain the whole wheat. I use it exclusively, and they do have a whole wheat version. I’m glad you’re promoting this wonderful product.
Thanks for letting me know!
