What sets these Oat Flour Chocolate Cookies apart is their unique texture.

Prepare for a deeply chocolatey experience with every bite. You'll find a tender, fudgy middle encased in a slightly chewy exterior, making for a perfectly balanced cookie. With 119 calories per serving, these cookies are a delightful way to satisfy your sweet tooth, and using certified gluten-free oat flour makes them a naturally appealing option for those avoiding gluten.
While the recipe is delicious as written, you have a few ways to tailor it. The espresso powder is entirely optional but highly recommended to deepen and enhance the chocolate's complexity without adding a coffee flavor. For those needing a truly gluten-free option, be sure to use certified gluten-free oat flour. Ensuring your unsalted butter is softened to room temperature is also key for the best texture and incorporation of ingredients.
