Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons melted coconut oil
  • ¼ cup (39g) coconut sugar
  • 1 medium ripe banana, mashed
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ teaspoon almond extract
  • ¼ cup (30g) flaxseed meal
  • ½ cup (56g) almond flour
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 1 ¼ cups (119g) rolled oats, gluten free if desired
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds
  • ½ cup (75g) frozen or fresh blueberries
  • ¼ cup (28g) chopped walnuts

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
  2. In a large bowl, mix together melted coconut oil, coconut sugar, mashed banana, and vanilla and almond extracts until smooth and creamy. 
  3. Next fold in flaxseed meal, almond flour, baking soda, cinnamon and salt and mix until a thick dough forms. 
  4. Next add in oats and chia seeds and gently fold into the batter until evenly distributed. Lastly fold in blueberries and walnuts.
  5. Use a large cookie dough scoop or 1/4 cup to scoop dough onto prepared cookie sheet (We want these to be BIG cookies!). Make sure you tightly pack the dough into a ball before putting it onto the sheet. 
  6. Gently press the top of the dough down just a little to flatten the tops. Bake for 13-16 minutes until edges begin to turn slightly golden brown. Allow cookies to cool for 15 minutes before removing from pan and transferring to a wire rack to finish cooling. Makes 8 big cookies.

Notes

  • These cookies would be excellent even if you're not enjoying them for breakfast. They are freezer-friendly and make a delicious snack. See the full post for storing & freezing instructions!
  • Feel free to sub chopped pecans or almonds for the walnuts, or leave them out entirely.
  • If you want these to be a little more treat like, feel free to add 1/4 chocolate chips to the batter.
