Prep Time: 10 mins
Cook Time: 12 mins
Total Time: 22 mins
Cuisine: American
Serves: 24 cookies
Ingredients
- 2 cups oat flour
- 1/2 cup coconut sugar
- 1/2 cup butter, softened
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
- In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the oat flour, baking soda, and salt until well combined and no lumps remain.
- In a separate large bowl, cream together the softened butter, coconut sugar, and brown sugar using an electric mixer until light and fluffy, approximately 2-3 minutes.
- Add the vanilla extract to the butter-sugar mixture and mix until fully incorporated.
- Gradually add the dry flour mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until a soft dough forms.
- Fold in the chocolate chips using a spatula, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
- Use a cookie scoop or tablespoon to drop rounded portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Gently press down on each cookie dough ball to slightly flatten, as oat flour cookies don't spread as much during baking.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
- Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Store cooled cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
Tips
- Measure Accurately: Make sure to spoon the oat flour into your measuring cup and level it off for the best results. Too much flour can lead to dry cookies.
- Room Temperature Ingredients: Ensure your butter is softened to room temperature for easier mixing and a fluffier texture.
- Customize Your Chips: Feel free to mix in your favorite chocolate chips or even add nuts, dried fruits, or coconut for extra flavor and texture.
- Don’t Overbake: Keep an eye on your cookies as they bake. They should be lightly golden around the edges but still soft in the center for that perfect chewy texture.
- Cooling Time: Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack. This helps them set and prevents breakage.
- Storage: Store your cookies in an airtight container at room temperature to keep them fresh for up to 5 days. You can also freeze the dough for later use—just scoop and freeze, then bake straight from the freezer!
