Finally! A healthy cookie made with oats and whole wheat flour that is sweetened with a little maple syrup and sugar free chocolate chips.  Even the glaze is sugar free!

WHOLE WHEAT OAT COOKIES 1 - Whole Wheat Oat Cookies

Everyone wants to indulge in a treat once in a while and once you start eliminating processed, store bought cookies from your house, well, the cupboards can look a little bare.

I’ll be honest here, we don’t have a lot of dessert type of recipes on our site because it’s hard to please everyone so when we do come up with a winner in our house, then we have to share it!

These oat cookies are made primarily with oats of course, but also whole wheat flour.  We have listed the ingredients for a gluten free option in the recipe section also.

How to make these healthy Whole Wheat Oat Cookies

Making these cookies is really quite simple with the help of a little food processor.

  • Pulse the oats a few times breaking them down.  Add the rest of the dry ingredients and give it a whirl to combine.
  • Combine the wet ingredients along with the melted butter.
  • Combine the two together and fold in the chocolate chips.
  • Roll some dough into a ball and flatten on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper.
  • Bake

These cookies will not spread on the baking sheet, so the size you shape them in to will be the size they come out.

Once the cookies are cool enough you can drizzle a nice glaze on top of them if you want.  This glaze is not your typical sugar glaze.  It’s made with Greek yogurt, vanilla and a little more maple syrup!
