    The Perfect {uber healthy} Chocolate Chip Cookie

    Follow my blog with Bloglovin

    This is the perfect oatmeal chocolate chip cookie, if you ask me. It's super healthy {packed with tons of whole foods, no filler ingredients} - which is a requirement if I'm posting it here on my blog - and it passes the taste test by both kids and adults. It's crunchy, chunky, salty, sweet and hearty. The chocolate is ooey gooey as well.

    This cookie is flourless, full of sprouted buckwheat, chia seeds, sunflower and pumpkin seeds, nuts, dark chocolate and sweetened with coconut sugar. There aren't exactly low fat; I love my cookies with the fatty taste and texture.

    I feel like I have been making cookies for so long now that I could almost do it with my eyes closed; after years in a commercial kitchen testing recipes and manufacturing cookies to sell to stores, I have no almost no need to measure ingredients.

    But thankfully, this time, I measured so that I could share this recipe with everybody! My kids are especially fans of this one.

    This recipe was going to go into my self-published cookbook that has been in the making for way too long now. I took a break from it because the software just drained my free time - glitches, kinks, shut downs, errors, etc. - and so for now, I'm going to wait until I can find a better site to print it. I will slowly release some of the recipes via the blog. So stay tuned. This recipe being one of my sweet favorites.

    OATMEAL CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIE RECIPE

    yields about 12-14 cookies

    INGREDIENTS

    1 cup gluten-free oats

    1 cup Go Raw sprouted buckwheat groats + flax combo

    ⅓ cup Go Raw sprouted sunflower seeds or regular sunflower seeds

    ⅓ cup pumpkin seeds

    ½ cup walnuts

    ½ cup chocolate chips {dark preferrably}

    large pinch sea salt

    ½ teaspoon vanilla extract + 1 vanilla bean {inside seeds, scraped}

    3 Tbls chia seeds, soaked in water until it forms a gel, about 5 minutes

    ⅓ cup vegan butter or goats butter, room temp {not liquid}

    ½ cup coconut sugar

    DIRECTIONS

    Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

    In a food processor chop nuts, sesame seeds, pumpkin seeds and oats for about 5 pulses. Just to mix and slightly chop. Add buckwheat and give it another 4 pulses.

    Remove dry ingredients and set aside in large bowl. In the food processor add butter, vanilla, and coconut sugar. Give it a few pulses until everything is thoroughly mixed.

    Using your hands, combine everything and add in the chia seed gel. Mix with your hands until everything is evenly distributed.

    Using your hands again, press dough into very tightly packed balls. Place dough balls onto a greased cookie sheet. Do this until mixture is gone.

    Since there are no eggs or baking powders this dough won't feel right. But trust me. It will hold together. 

    Bake cookies for about 10-15 minutes and using a spatula press each ball down gently to form more of a flat patty. Bake for another 10-15 minutes until cookies are slightly browned on top and around the bottom edges. Let cool! Enjoy! Kids love these as well.

    Enjoy + don't forget to share! {wink}

    xoxo, Juli

        Sorry for the mess up. Check recipe again. There was a glitch when I was inputting my recipe and the site didn't refresh correctly. Sorry for missing chocolate chips. Hope that helps and thanks for the comment. Sorry for confusion 😉

        There was a refresh issue. My platform didn't post the changes I had made from the edits I was working on when it crashed. Please see recipe again. Sorry for confusion. I use GoRaw's sprouted buckwheat and always keep that on hand for cookies. They are already dehydrated and flax are added as well which is so helpful. Thanks for comment 😉

      These sound so good! How much sesame seeds do you use? It wasn't listed in the ingredients list but you mentioned it in the instructions.

        It's actually sunflower seeds. Not sure where you saw sesame seeds but that would make sense if I said that, because I ALWAYS mix them up when talking. Hmmm. Check the recipe again there was a refresh issue.

Passion fruit water is yet another youth serum. As passion fruit is full of vitamin C, vitamin A, fiber, and minerals like calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, and folate. These help your kidneys, nerves, muscles, and heart rhythm in big ways.
Your body uses Vitamins C to make blood vessels, cartilage, muscles, and collagen, which keeps skin looking young. It also helps your body heal, lowers inflammation, and protects your cells from damage. When you get enough vitamin C, it lowers your chances of getting colds and certain types of cancers. Vit A is great for eyes, immunity, and cells.
Note: did you know Passion Fruit is actually a berry? The biggest berry you’ll find.

    If you’re not ready for change, you’re not rea
    If you’re not ready for change, you’re not ready for change. And that’s perfectly ok. 
Making healthy choices isn’t hard work. You “have time” to choose an apple over a bag of chips. Let’s be real here; you just DON’T WANT TO.  And that alone is totally ok!!
Let’s not shame others choices or pressure another to change. If somebody is not happy where they’re at, or they are sick, or in pain, only then will they start examining their current routines and habits. Anger is a great catalysts for change. It often pushes people out if their comfort zones and into action. 
I often hear “I don’t have time to be healthy”. But what that really means is I don’t want to change or I’m afraid of change. And I’m not ready. Change is what they’re nervous about - not the amount of time it takes to chop up vegetables. 
Be kind to yourself…but be honest. 
Notice what you say you desire (weightloss or more energy) and then really examine your habits. Do you make the choices a “thin” person makes? Do you make the choices a rested high energy person needs to make? This might seem obvious but it’s actually not…so often we overlook this gap. We don’t see it and then we get mad at ourselves. Punish ourselves for “failing” over and over again. 
Once you start paying attention to your actions and habits and line them up with your goals - that’s when the magic happens. 
Yay or nay?
