Ingredients

Servings12
  • 1 cup gluten-free oat flour
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup chia seeds
  • 1/4 cup coconut sugar
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 1/4 cup melted coconut oil
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup dairy-free chocolate chips (optional)

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together the gluten-free oat flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, salt, and chia seeds until evenly combined.
  2. In a separate large bowl, mix the coconut sugar, brown sugar, melted coconut oil, egg, and vanilla extract until smooth and slightly fluffy.
  3. Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, stirring well to form a thick cookie dough. Fold in the dairy-free chocolate chips if using.
  4. Preheat your air fryer to 320°F (160°C) for about 3 minutes.
  5. Line the air fryer basket with parchment paper cut to size, or use a reusable silicone liner to prevent sticking.
  6. Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, portion out the dough into 12 evenly sized balls and place them spaced apart on the liner.
  7. Press each ball gently to flatten slightly into a cookie shape, about 1/2 inch thick.
  8. Air fry the cookies at 320°F (160°C) for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are firm and crisp but the centers remain slightly soft.
  9. Remove cookies carefully from the air fryer and let them cool on a wire rack. They will crisp up further as they cool.
  10. Serve warm or at room temperature as a delicious snack.
