Chocolate Almond Oatmeal Cookies Recipes

CHOCOLATE CHIP ALMOND BUTTER OATMEAL COOKIES

Steps:

• Line baking sheet with parchment paper or silicone baking mat. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Combine flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Set aside. Beat butter until creamy.
• Add sugars beating until fluffy, approximately 3 minutes. Scrape the bowl as necessary.
• Beat in almond butter until incorporated.
• Beat in vanilla and then eggs, one at a time.
• Gently stir in the dry ingredients (I switched to the paddle on my kitchen aid mixer).
• Add ground almonds and oatmeal and stir until just incorporated. Stir in the chocolate chunks.
• Roll cookies into 2 Tbs sized balls. Place on baking sheets and bake cookies for 10-12 minutes. Edges should be slightly browned and the cookies puffed.
• Cool on sheets for 5 minutes before transferring to a cookie cooling rack.

DARK CHOCOLATE ALMOND OATMEAL COOKIES

Steps:

• Prepare your flax egg by combining ground flax seeds and water in a small bowl. Give it a gentle stir before setting aside for ~5 minutes to allow it to gel.
• In a large mixing bowl, combine oats, almond flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar. Add flax egg**, melted coconut oil, vanilla extract, and mix until well combined and dough begins to thicken. Fold in chocolate chunks.
• Cover bowl with plastic wrap and place in the fridge to chill for a minimum of 30 minutes.
• When ready to bake, preheat oven to 350F and line a cookie sheet with parchment paper or a non-stick baking mat. Use a tablespoon to drop cookies onto baking sheet, pressing down to flatten them slightly.
• Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges begin to turn golden brown.
• Remove from oven and allow to cool on sheet for ~5 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack to cool completely. Store in an airtight container for up to a week.

ALMOND FLOUR OATMEAL COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 180C/350F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper, and set it aside.
• In a large mixing bowl, combine your dry ingredients and mix well. Add the wet ingredients, and mix until combined. Fold through the chocolate chips. If the batter is too thick, add the milk of choice, as needed.
• Using a cookie scoop or a large spoon, scoop out heaping tablespoons of dough. Using your hands, roll out balls of cookie dough. Place the balls of cookie dough onto the lined sheet and press each one down slightly.
• Bake the cookies for around 10 minutes, or until the edges are beginning to go golden brown. Remove from the oven and allow to cool completely.

SOFT CHOCOLATE-ALMOND OATMEAL COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees, line three cookie sheets with parchment or nonstick baking liners.
• In a medium bowl, combine the oats, flour, baking soda, and salt. Whisk until well blended.
• In another large bowl combine the brown sugar and butter, beat with an electric mixer on medium speed until well combined. Add the eggs and vanilla and almond extracts and beat until well combined.
• Pour in half of the dry ingredients and mix on low speed just until blended. Add the milk and mix until just blended. Pour in the remaining flour mixture and mix until just blended. Add the nuts and mix briefly to combine.
• Shape the dough unto 1.5 in balls. Arrange the mounds on the cookie sheets, about 2 inches apart. Lightly dampen your fingertips and slightly flatten each mound, so they're about .5 inches thick.
• Bake one sheet at a time on the middle rack until the cookies are puffed and still moist-looking on top, about 11 minutes.
