Rye and pecan chocolate chip cookies
Regular chocolate chip cookies are always going to be popular, but they can all too easily veer into cloying, oversweet territory. The solution? Doves Farm fibre-rich Organic Wholemeal Rye Flour, which has a deeper, nuttier flavour than regular wheat flour and can stand up against the sugar. Keeping the chocolate chips big creates a contrast of texture, as do the pecans – which add their own delightful flavour to the mix.
