  1. Oh man, I’d be in the kitchen making these right now if I could eat them! Great looking ingredient list, YUM!

  2. Hi Meghan. Your recipe look sooo good, so I tried it today. I am not sure if you have tried the recipe using an egg versus the chia paste…. Totally different look, the cookies are super thin but really delicious…light and crispy. I will definitely make them again :)

  3. Just made them….a double batch, because I knew they would be delicious….and of course they are delicious….yum, thanks for yet another no fail nutritious treat. Now I am cooling them and will share with my neighbours.

  4. Meghan, just made the cookies, really tasty. Didn’t have arrowroot starch used corn starch instead. I can.t wait to find the arrowroot starch

  5. Just made these and they are amazing. My mixture ended up rather running, so I just added extra flour (maybe because I used barley flour instead brown rice flour). And they look rather different to yours – probably because of the runny mixture. But they tasted fabulous. Just like an unhealthy cookie. I’m sure I could fool anyone with these. So glad to have a healthy replacement for the often requested choc chip cookie :-).

  6. Oh, I think I might have worked out what I did “wrong”. I melted the coconut oil instead of softening it!!!!!

  7. Meghan, is arrowroot flour the same as arrowroot starch ? I can’t get coconut sugar can you suggest a substitute.

  8. Meghan, I made these cookies the other day and they turned out AWESOME! My husband LOVES them and I think I’ll definitely be making more of them. When I made them, they were a little crumbly but they still turned out great.

  9. Just had to let you know that your oatmeal chocolate chip cookies are the best I have ever tasted – ever!! As I didn’t have any coconut oil or sugar on hand I used demerara brown sugar (a little less than called for), and used unsalted butter, and I roasted the pecans before adding to the recipe. Oh yeah – I didn’t have any chia seeds on hand except I did have the cereal called “Holy Crap its Good – Skinny B” — so I substituted that as it contains a good portion of chia seeds plus other seeds.
    Thanks for a great recipe – this is the only chocolate chip recipe I will ever use from now on – I love the idea of using maple syrup in the recipe!

  10. Hello Meghan,

    I baked these cookies for a workplace fundraiser for our local Humane Society, and they were a huge hit! I had a few people asking for the recipe so I sent them your way! I made the cookies a bit larger and only baked them for about 8 minutes to keep them moist and chewy. Also for nut allergy concerns in the office, I left out the pecans. Any suggestions for alternatives to gluten free rolled oats? They’re quite pricey to buy and regular rolled oats are considered to contain trace gluten. Quinoa flakes maybe?

    Thanks for this awesome recipe!

  11. I made 2 batches last night and have made these cookies many times. I always get told how good a cook I am…can’t take the credit though :)

    Thanks so much Megan

  12. All I ever want to eat are oatmeal chocolate chip cookies but can never find them anywhere… Thanks for this super easy recipe!!! It’s not too sweet so perfect for me. Mine was a bit runny since my coconut oil was liquid but I just added a little extra rice flour. Next time, I think I’ll take your hint & replace some of the chocolate with some coconut or a berry/cherry :)

  13. My family devoured these cookies! I didn’t have any GF flours, so I used standard AP and left out the arrowroot. Delicious!

  14. So so good… even with the following swapsies… apple sauce for sugar… honey for maple syrup and goji berries & dates for chocolate chips! So moist and so delicious

  15. The BEST cookies bar none! I have made these many times and just yesterday switched them up using coconut butter instead of coconut oil (I didn’t have enough), and added apricots and cacao nibs. So delicious and they’re a rare hit with my husband. Thanks Meghan for such a fab and versatile cookie recipe!

  16. Found these cookies as an alternative treat to s’mores for camping. HOLY MOLY… these are delightful! I was worried about getting different flours and ingredients I may not use if the cookies didn’t turn out well. I didn’t have arrowroot so I used cornstarch. These were delightful and actually made me feel better after an exceptionally hearty dinner. Will be my go to recipe from now on for cookies! Thanks so much, can’t wait to explore your other recipes!
