Time 1h5m

Yield about 30 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 1/2 cups whole-wheat white flour
1/2 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
1 teaspoon baking soda
Fine salt
1 large egg
1/4 cup smooth unsweetened applesauce
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
12 tablespoons (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
1/2 cup granulated sugar* (See Cook's Note)
1/2 cup packed light brown sugar* (See Cook's Note)
3/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips

Steps:

  • Adjust two oven racks to the lower and upper third of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Add the flour and oats to a food processor and pulse until the oats are finely ground. Transfer to a medium bowl, add the baking soda and 1/2 teaspoon salt and whisk to combine. Whisk together the egg, applesauce and vanilla in a small bowl.
  • Add the butter, granulated sugar and brown sugar to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment (or to a large bowl if using a hand mixer). Beat on medium-high until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 4 minutes. Add the applesauce-egg mixture and beat until incorporated, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed. Reduce the mixer speed to medium-low and add the flour-oats mixture in two batches, mixing until just incorporated. Add the chocolate chips and mix until evenly distributed in the batter.
  • Drop heaping tablespoonfuls of batter onto the prepared baking sheets, about 2 inches apart. All the batter won't fit on the two sheets; cookies will need to be baked in batches. Bake until golden brown, 10 to 12 minutes, rotating the pans halfway through. Let the cookies cool for a few minutes on the baking sheets, then transfer to racks to cool completely. Once the lined baking sheets are cool, repeat with the remaining batter. Store the cookies at room temperature in airtight containers for up to 3 days.

Time 35m

Yield 36

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tablespoons dark cocoa powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate chips. The chocolate chips are the star of the show in these cookies, so it's important to use ones that you love. Look for chocolate chips that are made with real chocolate and have a high cocoa content.
  • Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing the dough will make the cookies tough. Mix the dough just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Chill the dough before baking. Chilling the dough will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Bake the cookies at a high temperature. Baking the cookies at a high temperature will help them get crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before eating them. The cookies will continue to firm up as they cool, so it's important to let them cool completely before eating them.

Conclusion:

These whole foods chocolate chip cookies are a delicious and healthy treat that the whole family will love. They're made with simple, wholesome ingredients and are free of refined sugar and processed foods. So next time you're craving a chocolate chip cookie, reach for this recipe.
