Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Whole wheat flour
- 1 cup Old-fashioned oats
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter, softened
- 0.5 cup Brown sugar, packed
- 0.25 cup Granulated sugar
- 1 large Egg
- 1 teaspoon Pure vanilla extract
- 0.75 cup Dark chocolate chips
- 0.5 cup Chopped nuts (optional, e.g., walnuts or pecans)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, old-fashioned oats, baking soda, and salt. Mix well and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, use a hand mixer or stand mixer to cream the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar together until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter-sugar mixture, and beat until well combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients from the medium bowl into the wet mixture in the large bowl, mixing on low speed until just combined. Avoid overmixing.
Fold in the dark chocolate chips and chopped nuts (if using) with a spatula until evenly distributed in the dough.
Using a tablespoon or small cookie scoop, portion the dough into balls about 1.5 inches in diameter and place them on the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart to allow for spreading.
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes or until the edges are just starting to turn golden brown. Be careful not to overbake as they will firm up slightly as they cool.
Remove the baking sheets from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve your Whole Grain Chippers with a glass of milk or your favorite beverage, and enjoy!
