honey whole wheat (or oat flour) chocolate chip cookies

Finally, a “clean” chocolate chip cookie that truly tastes and looks like a chocolate chip cookie.  If whole wheat isn’t your bag, then grind up some oats and use oat flour instead. I dare you to eat just one.

hope these make your belly smile…

Dry Ingredients
1 c. old fashioned or quick cooking oats
1 c. white whole wheat flour (alternative: 1.5 c. oat flour – grind up oats in your blender)
1.5 t. baking powder
½ t. sea salt

Wet Ingredients
½ c. local honey (not raw)
1/4 c. creamy nut butter
1 organic egg
2 T. coconut oil, melted
2 T. organic butter, melted
1t. organic vanilla extract

Stir In Ingredient
½ c. clean eating chocolate chunks

Directions: Preheat oven to 325 degrees.  In a small bowl, stir together the dry ingredients. In a slightly larger bowl, whisk together the wet ingredients.  Add the dry ingredients to the wet.  Gently stir until just under-stirred.  Stir in the chocolate chunks, reserving a few to sprinkle on the tops of the cookie mounds. Create cookie mounds with a scoop or two tablespoons.  Flatten mounds by hand just a bit. Sprinkle with the remaining chocolate chunks.  Bake on a silicone lined baking sheet or baking stone for approximately 12 minutes.
