Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Rolled oats
- 1 cup Whole wheat flour
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 cup Unsalted butter
- 0.25 cup Coconut oil
- 0.5 cup Brown sugar
- 0.25 cup Granulated sugar
- 1 unit Large egg
- 1.5 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 0.75 cup Dark chocolate chips
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
Step 2
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, whole wheat flour, baking soda, and salt. Stir until evenly mixed and set aside.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, beat together the unsalted butter, coconut oil, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until the mixture is creamy and smooth, about 2-3 minutes.
Step 4
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the wet mixture. Beat until fully incorporated.
Step 5
Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Step 6
Gently fold in the dark chocolate chips using a spatula or wooden spoon.
Step 7
Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, drop evenly shaped balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches of space between each cookie.
Step 8
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers may look slightly underbaked, but they will set as the cookies cool.
Step 9
Remove the baking sheets from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 10
Serve your Light Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Cookies with a glass of milk or enjoy them on their own!
