Ingredients

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350ºF.
  • In medium bowl add the oats and baking soda and mix well; set aside.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk almond butter, xylitol, eggs and vanilla for about 5 minutes or so.
  • Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix everything together.
  • When all the ingredients are combined and add the chocolate chips.
  • Place a silicone mat or parchment paper on a tray.
  • Scoop out 1 tablespoon of the batter onto the tray 2 inches apart. The batter will be very stick, but don't worry. It'll work well.
  • Then flatten the top of the cookie with two fingers. Add extra chocolate chips on the top of the cookies if you desire.
  • Bake for 9-11 minutes and let them cool completely to remove from the baking sheet, otherwise the cookies may break apart.
  • The cookies may look a little underdone, but they will continue to cook once you remove them from the oven.
  • Makes 16-20 cookies.

Notes

  • You can use any types of chocolate chips such as dark chocolate, white chocolate, milk chocolate, semi-sweet chocolate, caramel, and more!
  • I like saving a handful of chocolate chips to press on top of the cookies before baking so they look nicer afterwards.
  • Make sure you are using rolled oats and not steel cut or instant oats.
  • To store: Store the cookies for up to a week in an airtight container at room temperature with parchment between each layer. Make sure they are fully cooled before moving them as they can be delicate while warm.
  • To freeze: After baking, flash freeze the cookies before transferring them to a freezer-safe bag for up to 3 months.
