Spent Grain Cookies
Last night I made some cookies with the spent grain from the ESB I made the other day. Barley is grain that you can use a lot like oatmeal. I've been making bread out of it, but I felt like branching out a little. The one thing to beware of is extra moisture involved when using spent grain for baking. I followed a recipe for bread that called for 3 cups of spend grain and had to add so much flour that it ended up making 3 2 lb. loaves. I might suggest drying it out in the oven for a little while. Here is the recipe if you want to try it. The grain addition makes whatever you've got just a bit heartier.
