Honey Oat Chocolate Chip Cookies
These soft whole wheat cookies aren't your normal chocolate chip cookies--a hint of honey and flax create an unusual flavor profile and texture.
Servings 16 cookies
Calories 120kcal
Ingredients
- ¼ cup butter at room temperature (alternatively: olive oil, but I haven't tried it)
- ½ cup unrefined sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3/4 cup whole wheat flour
- ¼ cup ground flax seed
- ½ cup oats
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1/3 cup chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Cream together the butter and sugar. Add the egg, honey and vanilla; beat to combine. Add all dry ingredients and stir with a wooden spoon or spatula until combined.
- Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto an ungreased cookie sheet (or lined with parchment, if you like) and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown and set around the edges. If the middle still looks slightly soft, it will firm up as it cools.
