This healthy sprouted rye chocolate chip cookies recipe is easy and quick to prepare and makes the perfect snack especially if you have sensitive to wheat and other starchy flours.

I recently started experimenting with sprouted flours such as sprouted rye, sprouted wheat and sprouted spelt mainly because of their health benefits. Sprouted flours are easier for our body to digest and provide vital nutrients than regular flours, making them perfect for a happy gut.

What Is Sprouted Rye Flour?

Sprouted rye flour is made by germinating the rye berry. The rye berries are cleaned then soaked for serval hours until the shell softens. The rye grain is then spread onto a tray and allowed to germinate for serval hours, bringing the grain back to life as living food. Once the rye berries have germinated, they are dried using a dehydrator.

Once the sprouted rye grain is dried, it is then milled and processed into flour. Sprouted rye flour is healthier than regular rye flour and wheat flour. Some of the advantages of sprouted rye flour are higher protein, lower carbohydrates and higher fibre making it easier for our body to digest it as a fruit rather than a starch.
