Make these healthier Grain Free Chocolate Chip Cookies for your next dessert: A classic cookie made paleo-friendly and egg free!
I fell in love with The Urban Poser’s recipe for Grain Free “Oatmeal” Creme Pie Cookies and had to try them for myself, with a few changes. I used to LOVE the Little Debbie Oatmeal Cream Pie Cookies, so much so that I almost made myself sick on them a couple times :/
It used to be that I never cared about how much sugar I was eating, but I realized that I couldn’t over-eat sugary foods forever and get away with it. My sweet tooth would catch up with me one day, unless I made some changes.
That’s why I love these cookies: they are simple and wholesome (though still a treat). I won’t end up with a sugar hangover from these cookies. I followed the original recipe but replaced the raisins with chocolate chips, used honey in the cookies, and skipped the nutmeg and marshmallow creme. Perfect!
I made some cookies like these several years ago, but they had eggs in them, so this recipe is even better. In the photo below, I made mini cookies and used mini chocolate chips; so cute and the perfect portion size!
To make these, go check out the recipe from The Urban Poser!

These look amazing! Are they crispy or soft?
Sarah Jane @ The Fit Cookie says
They tend to be more crispy, but you can make them softer by reducing the water or by shortening the baking time a little bit.

mmmmmm! I love grain free goodies! these look wonderful and hardly any sweetener at all – woot! I’ve been seeing lots of chia out there. I’m going to have to start with some of these chia recipes!

Flaxseed meal works well in place of chia seeds if you can’t find any chia seeds. I use a spice/coffee grinder to grind up the chia seeds for recipes like this : ) Chia and flax work well as a binder so you can replace eggs. I also use it instead of xanthan gum in gluten-free recipes.

These are really yummy! I need to work on some variations so my kids can have some (they have nut allergies)
