Add the flour (measuring it with a scale is preferred) and whisk to combine. Fold in the chunks of chocolate.

Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and set aside for 2 hours, at room temperature. This is to allow the oat flour to hydrate and the mixture to bind. If you bake it too early the cookies will spread too much.

Preheat the oven to 350 F and line two cookie sheets with parchment paper. Using a cookie scoop, portion the dough into 1.5 tablespoons. Roll the dough balls between your palms to smooth them over. If you like you can stick some extra chunks of chocolate on top (press them in a little) so they are prominent when they come out of the oven.

Bake the cookies for 10 minutes.

About this Recipe
Looking for that perfect, super chewy chocolate chip cookie that’s also naturally gluten-free? These Oat Flour Chocolate Chip Cookies deliver on all fronts, combining rich dark chocolate chunks with a delightful, wholesome oat flavor that truly satisfies.
The magic in this recipe lies in the use of oat flour, which imparts an incredibly soft, chewy texture and a distinct, subtly nutty flavor that sets them apart from traditional wheat flour versions. It's a simple, elegant swap that transforms a classic into something truly special.
You can anticipate a deeply satisfying cookie experience: a beautifully crisp edge yielding to an incredibly soft, chewy center. Each bite offers the comforting sweetness of dark brown sugar, complemented by rich, melt-in-your-mouth dark chocolate, and the subtle, earthy essence of oats. This recipe focuses on creating that ideal balance of flavors and textures, promising a delicious outcome that feels both familiar and refreshingly unique.
Feel free to customize these treats to your liking. While chopped dark chocolate provides a sophisticated bitterness, you could swap in milk chocolate or a mix for a sweeter profile. The dark brown sugar is crucial for the signature chewiness and depth of flavor, but a blend with light brown sugar could be used for a slightly milder molasses note.
These cookies are perfect for an afternoon pick-me-up with coffee or milk, or as a delightful dessert to share with friends and family at any gathering.
