One of the most requested recipes to add to my site have been these One Bowl Oatmeal Chocolate Chip cookies. I just haven’t gotten around to getting them on here! Every time someone asked I would reply that I would get them on my site soon. Well, here they are, and I think you won’t just love the cookie, but love how easy they are to make!

Why are they so great? They’re one of those easy to make, go-to recipes, that I whip up when we need to take something somewhere. They are the cookies I make to pack into my kid’s lunch for a treat.  They are seriously one of the easiest cookies to make that turn out great EVERY TIME.

To add to the greatness of this recipe, they have half the sugar and butter of traditional recipes! Yay!

If these cookies make it a day around our house it’s a miracle. I usually save my husband a big spoonful of the dough to eat for a treat. He gratefully thanks me, and when I turn around he has the oven door open scooping more dough off of the cookies sheet to eat! I guess what they say about dough is true…..good dough, good cookie, and these One Bowl Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies are some gooood cookies!

 Different variations of these Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies.

I have made many variations of these cookies. Here are some things I have done.

  • You can add a ½ cup of shredded coconut.
  • I have added a tablespoon of chia seeds or fresh ground flaxseed.
  • Chia eggs also work as a great egg replacement and you can use chia egg by mixing 1 tablespoon of chia seeds and 3 tablespoons of water and let sit for a couple of minutes.
  • The flax egg cookies taste just as good and worth doing to add extra fiber!
  • I have made these gluten-free which I will make a separate post on because they were delicious!
  • I have used brown sugar in place of granulate sugar and they turn out great!
  • I have flattened these with a spoon before baking and made Ice cream sandwiches with them!
  • You can add a ½ of a cup of cranberries to these cookies to make them festive around the holiday!
  • I like to change up the flavor of these cookies by adding in a ½ of a teaspoon of cinnamon, cardamom, or a couple of pinches of nutmeg.
