Ingredients
  

Dry Ingredients
  • 4.5 cups rolled oats Thick and hearty, providing a chewy texture.
  • ¾ cup coconut oil or melted butter Adds moisture and a subtle coconut essence.
  • 1/2 cup agave syrup or honey Naturally sweet, binds the ingredients.
  • ¾ cup walnuts (chopped) Adds a crunchy and nutty texture.
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened chocolate (chips or chopped) Provides a rich sweet contrast.
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon Infuses with a gentle spice.
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda Helps the cookies rise.
  • Pinch salt Balances sweetness.
Wet Ingredients
  • 2 medium eggs Binding agents for texture.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Create oat flour by blending 1.5 cups of rolled oats until a flour-like consistency is achieved.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the oat flour with the remaining rolled oats, walnuts, chocolate, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt. Mix thoroughly.
  3. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and add in the agave syrup and melted coconut oil. Stir until creamy.
  4. Gradually add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients and mix until fully combined.
  5. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  6. Use a scoop to drop rounded tablespoons of dough on the baking sheet, spacing them 2 inches apart.
  7. Lightly flatten each dough ball with your hands.
Baking
  1. Bake the cookies for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown. Watch closely to avoid over-baking.
  2. Remove from the oven and let cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
Storage
  1. Once cooled, enjoy right away or store them in an airtight container.

Notes

For chewier cookies, let the dough rest for about 10 minutes before baking. Adjust sweetness as desired. Customize with dried fruits or different nuts.
