Healthy Superfood Chocolate Oatmeal Cookies

Enjoy these delicious chocolate oatmeal cookies without the guilt and feel amazing knowing you are putting Superfoods into your body! This recipe was adapted from a regular cookie recipe, but was revamped with much healthier substitutes like coconut oil (a healthy fat) instead of butter. These cookies are vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free, low in sugar and high in antioxidants.Gather: 

  • 1/2 cup coconut oil
  • 1/3 cup Philosophie Cacao Magic
  • 3/4 cup sugar, agave or honey (or a few drops of stevia)
  • ½ cup almond milk
  • 2 cups uncooked gluten-free oatmeal
  • ½ cup almond butter
  • 1 tsp. vanilla
  • ½ tsp. salt
  • optional: pumpkin
  • optional: 1 tbsp Philosophie Green Dream

Directions:

  1. Melt the coconut oil in a heavy saucepan.  Remove from heat.
  2. Stir in the sugar and cocoa.  Add the almond milk.  Bring to a boil.  Let boil for 2 minutes.
  3. Remove from heat and blend in the remaining ingredients.  (You may need to add extra oats if consistency is too thin).
  4. Drop by spoonfuls on wax paper.  Cookies will harden as they cool.

TIP: As an extra nutritional boost, Green Dream could be added as well.
