PREP: 10 min

COOK: 20 min

TOTAL: 30 min

INGREDIENTS

2 C gluten free flour
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
2 eggs
2/3 C melted coconut oil
1 1/4 C pure maple syrup
1 tsp vanilla
1 1/4 C instant (quick cook) steel cut oats
1 1/4 C chocolate chips
1/2 C diced walnuts optional

INSTRUCTIONS

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
In a small bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In a large bowl, mix together the eggs, coconut oil, maple syrup, and vanilla. Add the flour mixture, and mix to combine. Then stir in the quick cooking oats, chocolate chips, and walnuts.
Use a cookie scoop or tablespoon to portion out the dough onto a cookie sheet (9 cookies per sheet). Bake for about 10 minutes, or until the cookies are set and they're beginning to turn brown.
Transfer the cookies to a wire rack to cool. Store in an airtight container for up to 4 days, or freeze for later.

NOTES

If you're using traditional steel cut oats (not quick cooking), you'll want to cook them first, just like when you're making oatmeal. To use cooked oats, simply substitute one cup of cooked oatmeal for the instant raw oats listed in the recipe, and add an extra half cup of flour (or more as needed to achieve a non-runny dough consistency).
