Ingredients
- 9 tbsp coconut oil solid, not softened
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- ¾ cup packed brown sugar
- ¼ cup almond milk
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 cups gluten free old fashioned oats
- 1 ¼ cups gluten free 1 to 1 flour
- ¼ cup ground flaxseed
- ¼ cup brewers yeast gluten free*
- 1 ½ tsp baking soda
- pinch sea salt
- 1 cup dark chocolate chips
Instructions
- First, preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a baking pan with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl or stand mixer, beat solid coconut oil with granulated sugar and brown sugar. Beat for 1 to 2 minutes or until no clumps of coconut oil remain.
- Next, add in all remaining ingredients except chocolate chips. Stir until a thick dough forms.
- Fold in dark chocolate chips.
- Use a cookie scoop or ice cream scoop to scoop balls of dough onto lined pan.
- Bake for 9 to 10 minutes or until cookies look slightly golden around the edges.
- Finally, remove from oven. Allow cookies to cool on pan for 10 minutes before carefully transferring to a cooling rack. They are gooey!
Notes
- Brewer's yeast is not always gluten free. Please double check labels to make sure you are using one that is specified gluten free!
- Use refined coconut oil for a neutral flavor. Unrefined coconut oil has a slight coconut flavor.
- Any type of milk can be used.
- Old fashioned rolled oats provide a much better texture than quick oats.
- If not gluten free, all purpose flour can be used.
- Any type of chocolate chips can be used.
- These cookies are gooey! Feel free to bake them 1 or 2 more minutes for a crispier cookie.
- These cookies spread quite a bit while baking. For a thicker cookie, place dough in fridge for 30 minutes before baking. Or, add another 1 to 2 tablespoons of flour for a thicker dough.
- Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
- They freeze well!
