Our Favorite Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Cookies

 

This used to be our go to recipe for cookies before changing our diets. Since it's always been a favorite, we decided it was time to make it a little healthier. I love how simple it is to heathify sweets, I really can't tell the difference between these and the old version. 

-1/2 cup coconut oil
-1/2 cup earths balance or organic butter
-1/2 cup evaporated cane juice crystals
-1/2 cup sucanat
-2 organic eggs
-1 teaspoon vanilla
-1 1/2 cup whole wheat flour
-1 teaspoon baking soda
-1 teaspoon cinnamon
-1/2 teaspoon sea salt
-3 cups oatmeal
-1 cup chocolate chips (we use the vegan kind from Costco)

Preheat the oven to 350. Beat the oil/butter and sugars together until creamy, add the eggs and vanilla, beat well. In a bowl combine flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt, stir then add to mixture. Stir in oats and chocolate chips. Drop on ungreased cookie sheets and bake for 10-12 min.
