Fresh fruit adds natural sweetness and reduces sugar content.

Soak the raw cashews in water.

Mix the soaked cashews, eggs, oil, honey, and vanilla extract together until smooth.

In a separate bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, almond flour, spelt flour, baking powder, and salt.

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until a dough forms.

Chill the dough in the refrigerator for a while.

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

Roll out the chilled dough on a floured surface to about 1/8 inch thick.

Cut circles from the dough using a cookie cutter or glass.

Place a small spoonful of filling in the center of each circle (filling not specified in the description).

Fold the edges of the circle toward the center to form a triangle, pinching the corners to seal.

Arrange the shaped cookies on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, until lightly golden.
