Chocolate chip cookies made with oat flour and olive oil for a softer, chewy texture with less saturated fat and added fiber. A better-for-you cookie that still tastes like the real thing.
1 ¼ cups oat flour, ¼ cup almond flour, 1 tablespoon flaxseed, ½ teaspoon baking soda, ½ teaspoon salt
Mix wet ingredients in a large bowl.
⅓ cup extra virgin olive oil , ½ cup brown sugar, 2 tablespoon granulated sugar, 1 large egg , 1 large egg yolk, 2 teaspoon vanilla
Add dry ingredients to wet ingredients and mix well, then fold in the chocolate chunks or chips.
½ cup dark chocolate chips or chunks
Let the cookie dough sit on the counter for 10 minutes, then chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
Remove dough from the fridge and form a high dollop of dough, about 30-35 grams each on a parchment lined baking tray, making sure to leave at least 2 inches between the cookie dough to allow for spread.
Bake for 14 minutes.
Remove from the oven and immediately sprinkle with flaky salt if desired. Allow to set for 5 minutes, then remove to a wire rack and allow to cool completely before storing.
Notes
Make sure to chill dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will help prevent the cookies from spreading too much.
