Healthy Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies

January 3, 2013 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 42 Comments

Hi Everyone,

I thought I would start the year out with a healthy, good for you, low-calorie Chocolate Chip Cookie.  This has been an ongoing project for me all last year!  I am on the look out for the ultimate guilt-free chocolate chip cookie!!  Is this cookie the ultimate?  No, probably not, but it’s pretty dam good if you ask me!!

Healthy Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies

This cookie does not contain dairy, it does not contain flour and it does not contain sugar!  Bingo, healthy cookie!!  So what is it made of?  Poop!  Just kidding!!  I used gluten-free rolled oats from Trader Joe’s and ground it into flour.  If you never ground your own oats you should!  Just take a cup of old fashion oats, pop in a mini food processor and a few pulses you have ground oats.  Simple!!  The cookie also contains coconut oil, unsweetened applesauce, sugar-free maple syrup and 3 Ghirardelli Dark Chocolate Squares from the candy bar.  I got 19 cookies out of the batch and guess what?  They only have, ready for this?  Drum roll please….41 Calories!  I never made a chocolate chip cookie this good for this low of calories!  Let me tell you, I’ll me making these all of the time!!  I think they may even pass the Husband test!!

Healthy Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies


I got the inspiration for this recipe from my Girl Gina, over at Running to the Kitchen.  Gina has some awesome recipes and she made these Paleo Chocolate Chip Cookies that looked amazing.  She inspired me to try my own cookies and to see what I can come up with.  Thanks to Gina and her fabulous recipes, I made these yummy bad boys!!  You should check out Running to the Kitchen!  I love Gina’s no bull attitude and she makes the most scrumptious recipes!!

Healthy Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies

When I took the cookies out of the oven,  I thought they were going to be rubbery, but surprisingly enough they weren’t at all.  They are soft and the chocolate is gooey.  They really do taste like a chocolate chip cookie!!  Even though they have oats in them, I didn’t find the taste of the oats to over take the cookie.  Now that I completed this part of my chocolate chip cookie mission, my goal is to come up with a flat, crispy chocolate chip cookie that is guilt-free.  That is going to be tough because I think, it is shortening and brown sugar that gives it the crispiness   But honestly I’m pretty satisfied with these cookies and I think you will be too!!

Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies

With the creation of this cookie, I know it’s going to be a good year full of fun recipes!!!  Since I have the base down of a healthy cookie, I can just imagine the other creative cookies I can come up with.  I already have one in my head, and I think I want to make it right now!!!  It’s going to be good!!!  It’s going to be fat, it’s going to be good for you!  Ok, I’m too excited!  I’m going to go bake in my 2′ x 1′ spot!  Darn this kitchen !

Have a great day!

Toodles,

Jennifer

P.S.  The cookies look much better in person than the photo!  It really bothers me that I don’t have my photo spot at this time. With the limited sunlight, I just can’t get a good shot in anywhere!  Sorry!!  This makes me so sad!  I’ll have to re-make when I get my spot back.

    So I started out with your recipe as inspiration! I ended up with a twist. I didn’t add coconut oil or maple syrup. I did add about 3 tbsp of almond butter, 2 tbsp ground flax seed, 1 tbsp of honey oh and I threw in about 1/4 cup of bran. Goes against the purpose of vegan but super healthy and yummy! Thanks!

One of the things I added was my new bedding that I got from @lushdecorhome. Let me tell you, it is so luxurious. This is the 3 piece Belgian Flax Linen Rich Cotton Blend Bedspread. It is so soft and gets softer with each wash. 
💕
I have a tall bed and the ruffles just reaches the floor. The bedding is filled with cotton that gives the bedspread such a comfy feel. The bedspread is perfect for the summer, as it is lightweight, but warm enough to keep you cozy in the winter. The set comes with two pillow shams and the bedspread. It also comes in 4 colors.

I love my new bedding, it’s so feminine and simply beautiful. I couldn’t be happier. Swipe the photo to see how happy Sully is on the bedding.

Hi Everyone! I shared the reel to my Summertime ta Hi Everyone! I shared the reel to my Summertime tablescape with @JCPenney + #AllAtJCP + #sponsored +#ShoppingIsBack but you know how I love still photos better. I think you can really see the details of the decor.

💛

I am loving how simple, fresh and light my tablescape feels. It’s the perfect look I was going for. When the idea came for creating a tablescape, I was unclear of what direction I was going for until I shopped at JCPenney. I walked around the decor department and was completely inspired. They had so many styles and colors that would inspire you too.

💛

I saved a highlight of my shopping trip to JCPenney. You must check it out. I’ll be honest, I was blown away by the styles, quality and prices of there store. I will be shopping there quite frequently and you know I will take you along my journey.

💛

What is the style of your home?

💛

PS. Everything on my table is from JCPenney and it is the Linden Street Collection.

My inspiration was my new pillows that I got from @downlitebedding. The name of the pillow says it all “Ahhhhhmazing™ down alternative pillow” and they are amazing.

The pillows are so soft, plush and are hypoallergenic. They are easily molded so you position your neck, head and arms. The pillows are also washable and OEKO-TEX® Certified Textiles Are Certified Free Of Harmful Chemicals.

Hello! I have to tell you that I love summer. It’s my favorite season. I love the sun, hot weather, shirts and flip flops. I could just spend all day outside.
🌻
One of my favorite things to do in the summer besides gardening is going to the Farmers Market. There is something about the atmosphere with people walking around with bags in hand, the smell of kettle corn and everyone is so happy. 
🌻
Besides the atmosphere, you can’t beat the freshly grown produce. It’s mind blowing how different it tastes, then what you get in the store. You almost forget what a strawberry is suppose to taste like until have it at the Farmers Market. Plus you are supporting your community. It’s a good feeling all around. 
🌻
I highly recommend going to the Farmers Market and pick up so corn. Soooooo good!! Stock up on your fruits and veggies and freeze it for winter.

Happy Monday!! It’s back to work for me. I’ll Happy Monday!! It’s back to work for me. I’ll be counting down to my next vacation, which will be the week of the 4th of July. I will tell you, it felt so nice not having any plans and doing work in the garden.
🌻
This weekend I finally made it to the Farmers Market and I picked up these amazing sunflowers. They are such a happy flower. 
🌻
When I got them, I couldn’t resist doing a flowers in the sink photo. I haven’t done one of these since Fall. Now I may have to go back to the Farmers Market next weekend because they had so many flowers and most were only $4.00 a bundle.

Happy Friday! My vacation is officially over and I Happy Friday! My vacation is officially over and I pretty much spent the whole week working in my garden, so I apologize for all the flower photos. 
🌸
This is a view of my fenced in garden. The flowers on the left are zinnias, and next to them is beardtongue and in the background, butterfly bush.  In about a month or so, this background will pop with lots of orange from my Mexican sunflower and yellow from the black eyed susan. I just hope my black eyed susan’s make it. They are struggling. 
🌸
I have to say I have been enjoying working in the garden. It’s therapy to me. It just makes me feel good to sit back and see all your hard work start to bloom. I can’t wait to see what the garden looks like a month.
🌸
What do you like to do that you consider your therapy?
