Ingredients
- 1 large egg
- ⅓ cup real maple syrup
- ¼ cup coconut oil melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup rolled oats
- ½ cup almond flour packed into the mesuring cup
- ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- ¼ cup roughly chopped walnuts
- ⅓ cup chocolate chips
- Zest of 1 large orange about 1 - 2 tsp
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Mix the wet ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk the egg, maple syrup, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Add the dry ingredients: Stir in the oats, almond flour, cinnamon, salt, and baking powder. Mix until everything is combined.
- Fold in the extras: Gently stir in the walnuts, chocolate chips, and orange zest.
- Shape the cookies: Scoop about 2 tablespoons of dough with your hands or a small spoon, then roll it into a ball. Place the balls on the baking sheet, leaving space between each one. This recipe makes 16–18 cookies.
- Bake: Put the tray in the oven and bake for 15–17 minutes, until the balls are golden brown on the outside.
- Cool: Let the cookies cool on the tray for a few minutes, then move them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Enjoy! Your cookies are ready to eat!
Notes
- Make them Nut-Free: Use oat flour instead of almond flour and omit the walnuts.
- Maple Syrup: You can swap it for honey or agave syrup if you prefer.
- Almond Flour: Oat flour is the best substitute for almond flour in these oatmeal cookies.
- Rolled Oats: You can use quick oats, but the cookies have a softer texture. DO NOT USE STEEL CUT OATS.
- Storage: Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the refrigerator for up to 7 days. For longer storage, freeze them in a sealed container or freezer bag for up to 3 months and thaw at room temperature before serving.
