Get the Recipe: Oat Flour Chocolate Chip Cookies
These oat flour chocolate chip cookies are buttery, gooey and so delicious! They are easy to make and have the best texture. These oat flour cookies are naturally gluten free!
Ingredients
- ½ cup butter, room temperature
- ¾ cup light brown sugar, tightly packed, or coconut sugar
- 1 egg
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 cups oat flour, see note
- ½ tsp baking soda
- ⅔ cup dark chocolate chips
Instructions
- First, add room temperature butter and brown sugar to a stand mixer. Beat for 2 minutes or until no clumps of butter remain.
- Add egg and vanilla extract to bowl. Stir to combine.
- Then, add oat flour and baking soda to bowl. Stir until dough forms.
- Fold in dark chocolate chips. Place mixing bowl in fridge to chill for 30 minutes.
- After 30 minutes, preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a baking pan with parchment paper.
- Use a cookie scoop to scoop 1 inch round balls of dough onto lined pan. Place each ball of dough at least 2 inches apart. These cookies spread while baking!
- Bake for 9 to 11 minutes or until edges are slightly golden and the middles are set.
- Finally, remove from oven. Allow cookies to cool on pan for 10 minutes before carefully transferring to a cooling rack.
Notes
- Use room temperature butter. About an hour or two before baking, place butter on countertop to soften.
- If you forget to place butter out to soften, microwave butter for 7 seconds to slightly soften it.
- I have tried this recipe with both homemade oat flour and store bought. I highly recommend store bought since it is finer and more uniform. I used Gold Medal Oat Flour.
- Do not skip the chilling dough step. Without chilling the dough, these cookies spread way too thin.
- If you have time, I suggest chilling them up to 2 hours. This will yield thicker cookies.
- These cookies are gooey and fragile! Handle gently after baking.
- Store cookies covered at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the freezer for up to 1 month.
