These are so I can feel OK with my toddler son eating them. Obviously, you could omit the chocolate chips and they'd be even better... but I didn't want to go crazy. I use Earth Balance margarine and Enjoy Life chocolate chips because they're dairy-free. I also have substituted 1/2 a cup of the whole wheat flour with garbanzo bean flour. Ingredients:
1/2 cup margarine |
1/2 cup dark brown sugar, packed |
1 egg |
1 teaspoon vanilla |
1 teaspoon cinnamon |
1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour |
1 teaspoon baking powder |
1 1/2 cups oats (not instant) |
1/2 cup dark chocolate chips |
Directions:
1. Combine margarine, sugar, egg, vanilla and cinnamon. Stir until creamy and smooth. I microwave the margarine for about 30 seconds to soften.
2. Add flour and baking powder and stir until completely combined.
3. Add oats and then chocolate chips.
4. Spoon onto greased cookie sheets with a soup spoon with about an inch between each cookie.
5. Bake at 350 F for 11 minutes. I used two sheets in the oven at once, and if you do that, switch the bottom sheet with the top sheet after about 5 minutes and then continue cookie.
6. Let cool.
