Spiced oat chocolate chip cookies

These cookies not only offer a delicious and convenient snact but also pack a nutritional punch.
Servings 9 cookies

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup quick oats
  • 3/4 cup dark chocolate chips dairy free
  • 1/2 cup tapioca flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/3 cup coconut oil melted
  • 1/2 cup shredded coconut
  • 1/4 cup pure maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup sunflower seeds
  • 1/8 cup water
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon sea salt

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the quick oats, dark chocolate chips, cinnamon, shredded coconut, sunflower seeds, tapioca flour, and 1/4 teaspoon of sea salt.
  • Measure out the coconut oil and place in a small saucepan to melt or place in the microwave.
  • Add the melted coconut oil, water, maple syrup, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Mix until well combined. The mixture may seem crumbly at first, but it should come together.
  • Use your hands or a spoon to form cookie dough balls and place them on the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each cookie.
  • Gently flatten each cookie with the back of a spoon or your hand.
  • Sprinkle a small amount of sea salt on top of each cookie for an extra burst of flavor.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes or until the edges are golden brown.
  • Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Notes: I like to use an ice cream scooper with a release, like this one https://www.amazon.ca/Cookies-Trigger-Stainless-Professional-Tablespoon/dp/B08MC4STJL/ref=sr_1_1_sspa?crid=3CLFRBLOTS5F3&keywords=ice+cream+scoop+for+cookies&qid=1700530759&sprefix=ice+cream+scoop+for+cooki%2Caps%2C218&sr=8-1-spons&sp_csd=d2lkZ2V0TmFtZT1zcF9hdGY&psc=1when making cookies or muffins. It makes the job so much easier and keeps the cookies and muffins very similar in size.
