Calories 97kcal
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup coconut sugar
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 2 tablespoon maple syrup
- 1/4 cup coconut oil
- 1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3/4 cup all purpose flour use gluten-free, if needed
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 1/2 cups rolled oats use gluten-free, if needed
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 180C/350F. Line a large baking tray with parchment paper and set aside. Alternatively, use two baking trays, to avoid cookies from overspreading.
- In a large mixing bowl, add your coconut sugar, white sugar, coconut oil, applesauce and vanilla extract, and mix until fully combined. Then, add your flour, baking soda, and salt, and mix well. Finally, fold through your oats and chocolate chips, until just combined. Do not overmix. For thicker cookies, you can refrigerate the dough for 30 minutes. If not, they are ready to bake.
- Remove the dough from the refrigerator. Using a cookie scoop or large spoon, drop balls of cookie dough onto the lined trays, about 2 inches apart.
- Bake the cookies for 15-17 minutes, or until just beginning to go golden brown around the sides. Remove from the oven and let cool on the tray for 10 minutes, before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
