Spelt + Sage + Brown Butter Cookies

in

Sage and brown butter are a tale as old as time. As golden cubes of butter melt down and sizzle in the pan, in go the light green sage leaves, releasing an alluring herbaceous aroma along with heady notes of browning butter. The sage crisps up and darkens as the butter turns into a dark amber hue. The crisped sage gets rubbed into the sugar mixture to further release its aromas. The addition of spelt enhances the nutty quality of the brown butter and adds a touch of dimension to the cookie. If desired a quick roll or dusting of sage rubbed sugar makes for a beautiful cookie.
