How to heat treat flour to make edible cookie dough
Heat treating flour to be suitable for this recipe is incredibly simple. You can either do it in the microwave or in the oven.
Microwave method
In a microwave-safe bowl, place your flour in it. Heat in 30-second increments, stirring each time (to avoid it burning).
Use a thermometer to check the flour is at 160-165F / 71-74C throughout.
Oven method
Similar to the microwave method, you will need to stir regularly and check the temperature of the flour to ensure it is 160-165F / 71-74C.
Preheat oven to 300F / 150C. Spread flour on a baking pan lined with parchment paper. Bake for 10-12 minutes, stirring every 2 minutes and checking the temperature of it each time.
NOTE: Flour must be cooled completely before using it.
