Ingredients
  • 1 1/2 cups Certified Gluten-Free Oat Flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon Baking Soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon Salt
  • 1/2 cup Unsalted Butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup Granulated Sugar
  • 1/2 cup Brown Sugar, packed
  • 1 Large Egg
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
  • 1 cup Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips

Getting Started

Begin by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. This will prevent the cookies from sticking and make cleanup easier.

Dry Ingredients

In a medium bowl, whisk together the certified gluten-free oat flour, baking soda, and salt. Ensure there are no lumps for a smooth cookie texture. Set aside the mixture.

Creaming Butter and Sugar

In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy. This usually takes about 2-3 minutes with an electric mixer. This step is crucial for achieving a tender cookie.

Adding Egg and Vanilla

Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined. Make sure to scrape down the sides of the bowl to ensure everything is mixed evenly.

Combining Wet and Dry

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can result in tough cookies.

Adding Chocolate Chips

Stir in the chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the dough. You can use a spatula or wooden spoon for this step.

Baking the Cookies

Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each cookie. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are set.

Cooling and Serving

Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy these gluten-free oat flour chocolate chip cookies warm or at room temperature.
