Healthy(ish) Gluten Free Chocolate Chip Cookies

Healthy(ish) Gluten Free Chocolate Chip Cookies

Sometimes, finding things that don't bloat you (I find wheat bloats me, hence the gluten free), satisfy your hunger and sweet cravings is hard... Very hard. We aalll know it girls,

 So I was in the kitchen today and I was starving, wasn't quite lunch time, but way past breakfast time. I wanted biscuits, no not wanted, NEEDED biscuits. But I am trying to be good lately, so I thought I'd make my own!

To make these gorgeous chocolaty oaty biscuits you will need -

  • 3 tablespoons of butter
  • 1/2 a cup of brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup of honey
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tablespoon of water
  • 1/2 a cup of gluten free flour (or normal if you're not GF)
  • 1/2 a teaspoon of salt
  • 1/4 of baking soda
  • 1 1/2 cups of rolled oats. (I used Quakers Gluten Free oats)
  • 2 teaspoons of caocoa powder
  • Hand full of dark chocolate chips
  • 1/2 a teaspoon of vanilla essence

There is a method to this madness, trust me -

  1. Preheat your oven to 180 degrees (my oven is fan assisted) and prepare your baking tray with grease proof paper.
  2. Mix together the butter and sugar, then add the egg honey and water, mix until thoroughly combined
  3. Sift the dry ingredients together, then add them to the wet ingredients. Not going to lie, this will hurt your arms when you're mixing but you can power through it!
  4. Add the chocolate chips (the yummiest part)
  5. Get a teaspoon, pile on the mixture so you get a very heaped teaspoon full and drop it on the baking tray, keeping going until your mixture is used up.
  6. Bake in the oven for 12-15 minutes, then cool on a wire rack.

That's it! SO easy to make and soooooooooo tasty too!
