After walking off the tennis courts this afternoon, I was craving warm chocolate chip cookies! I knew exactly what I was going to do when I got home. What better way to spend a Sunday afternoon?
I wanted to make a batch of cookies that were healthy enough to have in the morning with coffee while I read or as a post-workout snack. I’m always so hungry after my Sweat App workouts. We usually store cookies in the freezer, and I’m so excited to have them for the week! They turned out so delicious, and I had some time to post the recipe before heading out for dinner this evening. I really hope you all make this cookie recipe because they are so darn tasty! These cookies are crunchy on the outside and chewy in the middle. They don’t get much better than that! They are made without butter, no processed sugar, and healthier ingredients. I used coconut oil, maple syrup, oats, vanilla, baking powder, cinnamon, dairy-free chocolate chips, gluten-free flour, shredded coconut, and sea salt.
The fluffiest cookies ever! The best part is that you don’t need an electric mixer; you only need a big bowl to combine all the ingredients before throwing them into the oven. This recipe makes 22 cookies!

Thanks, Charmaine!
Could I use oat flour as the “gluten free flour” in these cookies?
I’ve only made them one way! You could try.
Oats aren’t gluten free
Deceptive article, dangerous to those with a newly developed gluten allergy
Shame
There are certified gluten-free oats.
can’t wait to try the recipe, thank you!
Hope you enjoy!
yum
These are amazing I’ve made them twice and going to continue and quite addictive 😍
I’m so happy to hear that!! yay
The taste is pretty good, but I am not sure what I did wrong. I am wondering if there is another liquid ingredient that doesn’t show up for me. Following the directions, my mixture was very dry and could not be formed into balls. I added about a half a cup of flax milk (the kind I had on hand) a little bit at a time, until I could form it into balls. The cookies remained in balls and did not melt into more flat, regular cookie shapes when baked. I might have added more flax milk? As a result, they are “okay,” but not as good as other oatmeal chip cookies I have baked.
