Drizzled Chocolate Walnut Oat Flour Cookies (V, GF, DF): an easy recipe for decadent, double chocolate oat flour cookies soft-baked to perfection. Vegan, Gluten Free, Dairy-Free, Whole Grain.
Servings: 20 -24 cookies
Ingredients
- 1 ¼ cups gluten free oat flour
- ¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt
Wet Ingredients
- ¼ cup + 2 tablespoons melted coconut oil
- ¼ cup coconut sugar
- ¼ cup pure maple syrup
- 2 flax eggs 2 tablespoons ground flax + 6 tablespoons water, whisked together, set for 10 minutes
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Add-in Ingredients
- ½ cup vegan chocolate chips
- ½ cup walnuts chopped
Optional Topping
- 1 tablespoon each: vegan chocolate chips chopped walnuts
Drizzle
- ¼ cup vegan chocolate chips
- ¼ teaspoon melted coconut oil
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or greased foil. Set aside for later.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together all the dry ingredients: oat flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder and salt.
- In a large bowl, whisk together all the wet ingredients: coconut oil, coconut sugar, maple syrup, flax eggs and vanilla. Whisk until thoroughly combined.
- Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients. Whisk until you get a sticky, soft dough-like mixture. Fold in chocolate chips and walnuts.
- Cover the bowl of cookie dough. Let sit for 10-15 minutes at room temperature—this allows the dry mixture to absorb the wet mixture and become more cohesive.*
- Using a cookie scoop, scoop 2 tablespoons of cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheet. Using a fork, flatten cookies into a round disc of desired thickness—they won’t spread much during baking. Press chocolate chips and walnuts into the tops of the cookies.
- Bake for 8-14 minutes. Mine took 10 minutes. Using a flat, heatproof spatula, carefully lift cookies off the baking sheet and transfer to a cooling rack. Allow to cool completely.
- In a microwave safe bowl, add ¼ cup chocolate chips and ¼ teaspoon melted coconut oil. Heat in 20-second increments until softened and melted. Stir until smooth. Spoon melted chocolate into a small zip bag and trim a tiny corner off. Pipe chocolate in a zigzag pattern across the top of each cookie.
- Enjoy! Storing instructions below.
Notes
- *You can skip this step, but the dough is more likely to be too sticky to flatten with a fork. Also, the cookies are less likely to have a beautiful textured on top.
