Healthy Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies - Even my kids can't tell these healthy cookies are gluten free and sweetened with honey!
Ingredients
1 cup oat flour (grind oats in the blender until flour consistency)
⅔ cup old fashioned oats
⅓ cup quick oats
1½ teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon cornstarch
½ cup honey
¼ cup natural peanut butter
1 egg
4 tablespoons unrefined coconut oil, melted
1 teaspoon vanilla
½ cup mini chocolate chips
Instructions
In a medium bowl mix together the oat flour (ground oats), old fashioned oats, quick oats, baking powder, salt, and cornstarch.
Add the honey, peanut butter, egg, coconut oil, and vanilla. Stir until well combined. Add the chocolate chips and mix well.
Refrigerate the dough for 30-45 minutes.
Preheat the oven to 3325 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a baking mat.
Spoon out 1-2 tablespoons of dough and make a ball with your hands. Lightly flatten the dough and place it on the baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining dough. Bake cookies for 10-12 minutes or until they are light brown. Let cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before removing to finish cooling on a wire rack.
Notes
To ensure that these cookies are gluten free, make sure to check that each ingredient is gluten free.
