How to Make Healthy But Tasty Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Cookies
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened unsalted butter and ¾ cup packed light brown sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add ¼ cup orange juice, ¼ cup light corn syrup, 1 large egg, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and ½ teaspoon butter flavoring. Beat well until combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 2 tablespoons ground flaxseed, ½ cup wheat germ, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and ½ teaspoon salt.
- Stir in 2 cups rolled oats and 1 cup chocolate chips (or dried cranberries/raisins).
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Drop by rounded tablespoons onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving some space between each cookie.
- Press 3-5 pecan or walnut pieces onto the tops of each cookie, if desired.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are set. Start checking at 8 minutes.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
