Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup butter
  • cups sugar (divided)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 4 cups einkorn flour
  • 2 teaspoons cream of tartar
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon cinnamon

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.  
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer, cream together the butter and 1½ cups of sugar using the paddle attachment until light and fluffy. Slowly add the eggs and mix again.  In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cream of tartar, baking soda, and salt, then add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture and combine on low speed.
  • In a small bowl, mix together the remaining 1/4 cup of sugar and 1 tablespoon cinnamon. Scoop and then roll the cookie dough into 1¼" balls and roll in the cinnamon and sugar mixture before placing on a parchment paper lined baking sheet, about 3" apart.
  • Bake in your preheated oven for 8-11 minutes, or till just golden brown on the edges.  Take the cookies out of the oven and let them sit for 2-5 minutes.  Transfer the cookies on a cooling rack. Enjoy!

Notes

Storing instructions: store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week. 
Make-ahead tips: you can make, scoop, and then freeze this cookie dough, storing it for up to 2 months in the freezer. When you are ready to bake, pull your cookies from the freezer onto a parchment paper lined baking sheet and bake in a preheated oven, adding  an extra 2-3 minutes to the baking time.
