As many of our American friends are sending their kiddos off to school right now, I thought I’d share a fun take on the “oatmeal cookie”. These cookies almost have a granola bar-like texture. They are soft and chewy on the inside with a crisp outside. The little grains of sea salt on the top bring out the sweetness of the chocolate and the nuttiness of the oatmeal.
- 2 cups rolled oats
- 1-1/2 cups whole wheat flour
- 1 cup brown sugar
- ½ cup butter, softened
- ½ cup maple syrup
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 1 egg
- 1-1/2 cups chocolate chips
- sea salt
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. In a large bowl combine everything except the chocolate chips and sea salt, until well combined. Stir in chocolate chips.
- Drop tablespoon scoops of batter onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Sprinkle the top of each dough ball with a little sea salt.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the edges start to brown. Allow to cool on a baking rack.
