  • Total Time: 30 minutes
  • Yield: 12 cookies

Ingredients

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 cup oat flour
  • 2 tablespoon almond flour
  • ¼ cup cocoa powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 6 tablespoon butter, melted and cooled for 5 minutes
  • ½ cup coconut sugar (or brown sugar)
  • 1 egg
  • 2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon milk

Additional Ingredients

  • ½ cup chocolate chips
  • ¼ cup dark chocolate bar, chopped
  • Flakey sea salt, for sprinkling

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a large cookie tray with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure even baking.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together oat flour, almond flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
  3. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a separate large bowl, whisk melted and cooled butter with coconut sugar until thoroughly combined. Then add the egg, vanilla extract, and milk, whisking until smooth.
  4. Combine Wet and Dry: Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, mixing gently until just combined. Avoid overmixing to keep the cookies tender.
  5. Add Chocolate: Fold in the chocolate chips and chopped dark chocolate pieces evenly throughout the dough.
  6. Form Cookies: Scoop the dough into 12 equal balls (about 2 tablespoons each) and place them onto the prepared baking sheet. Gently press down the tops to slightly flatten the cookies for even baking.
  7. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 9 to 11 minutes, or until the edges are set but the centers remain soft for a fudgy texture.
  8. Add Finishing Touch: Once baked, immediately sprinkle the cookies with flakey sea salt to enhance the chocolate flavor and add a subtle crunch.
  9. Cool and Serve: Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy!

Notes

  • This recipe uses a combination of oat and almond flours for added nutrition and a chewy texture.
  • You can swap coconut sugar with brown sugar if preferred.
  • Ensure the melted butter is cooled before mixing to avoid cooking the egg prematurely.
  • Do not overbake to keep the brownies fudgy; they will firm up as they cool.
  • Nutrition info is estimated and can vary depending on ingredient brands and measurements.
