Ingredients
  

1 cup rolled oats

1 cup almond flour (or whole wheat flour)

1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

1/2 cup maple syrup (or honey)

1/4 cup coconut oil, melted

1 tsp vanilla extract

1/2 tsp baking soda

1/4 tsp salt

1/3 cup dark chocolate chips (preferably dairy-free)

Optional: 1/4 cup chopped nuts (walnuts or almonds) or dried fruit (like cranberries or raisins)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easier cleanup.

    Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, almond flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Stir thoroughly until well mixed.

      Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the melted coconut oil, maple syrup, and vanilla extract until smooth and blended.

        Combine Mixtures: Pour the wet mixture into the bowl of dry ingredients. Stir until just combined, making sure not to overmix. Gently fold in the dark chocolate chips, and if using, your choice of nuts or dried fruit.

          Form Cookies: Use a tablespoon or cookie scoop to drop heaping spoonfuls of the dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches of space between each cookie.

            Shape the Cookies: Flatten each cookie slightly with the back of your spoon or hand to ensure they bake evenly.

              Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for about 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set and the cookies feel firm to touch.

                Cool: Once baked, remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes. Then, transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

                  Enjoy: Serve these healthy chocolate oat cookies as a nutritious snack or dessert! Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week… if they last that long!
