kamut butter cookies -- simple nut free cookies

My husband is currently on a restricted diet involving no nuts, no seeds, no spices, no garlic, no onions, no tomatoes, etc. So, I've been modifying my usual way of combining ingredients. For his nibbling pleasure, I have come up with these little cookies. Not too sweet, very buttery, very simple.

ingredients:

1/2 cup butter -- very soft or a little melted
1/2 cup coconut nectar
1/2 tsp sea salt
1 tbsp vanilla extract
1 tbsp ground vanilla bean


1/2 tsp baking soda
2 cups kamut flour



directions:

1. combine ingredients in the order listed
2. chill
3. roll out dough in two parts on lined baking sheets
4. score into squares
5. bake at 345 for 14 minutes


Because I melted the butter a little, I found the dough to be a little too sticky. I chilled it. Then, because I was super lazy, rather than roll out and use cookie cutters, I rolled out in two parts directly onto lined baking sheets and just scored it with a butter knife before baking into squares, which I  then broke along the score marks after baking.

Simple!!
