Step 1
Start by placing one oven rack all the way at the bottom and another one higher up. Then preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). In a bowl, beat together the brown sugar, butter, egg, and vanilla extract until everything is smooth and creamy. In a separate bowl, whisk the spelt flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. Fold in the chocolate chips and pecans. Drop spoonfuls of dough onto a baking sheet, spacing them out a bit. Pop the baking sheet on the lower rack and bake for about 5 minutes, then move it to the upper rack and bake for another 5 minutes or until the edges turn a nice light brown. Let the cookies cool a bit before digging in!

Storage & leftovers
