My Big Fat Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookie for One!

Whole grain oatmeal chocolate chip cookie for one with very little added sugar. Eggless, nut-free, and vegan-friendly!

Well, I am on a single serve dessert kind of roll, heh?

I can’t help it. I love fresh treats, and I love the act of creating them, so I am always drawn to the ‘for one’ portions.

During a time I should be posting my garlic mashed potatoes or healthy pumpkin custards, I am here with a large, comforting cookie that is (of course) both healthy and low in added sugar.

This little ditty has been my crutch during an intense time of change.

I recently moved out of a home I spent five years in, which is the longest our family has lived anywhere.

Though we definitely upgraded, I found myself intensely sad over the relocation, and in dire need of comfort.

My husband, good movies, and chocolate all qualify for the job!

I’ve been after a good single serve cookie for a while now, and though I recently posted this recipe, I wanted to try my hand at a version outside of a ramekin.

Most have been too crumbly or dry, but this one has been consistently good!

I enjoy topping it with a drizzle of fresh coconut cream, which I get from making my Homemade Coconut Milk, or a big spoonful of this Peanut Butter ‘Frosting’.

It’s a really great recipe that has been putting a smile on my face. 🙂

Notes:

I’ve not tried making this gluten-free, but I imagine an all-purpose GF flour would work fine in place of the spelt/whole wheat.

I like using my Homemade Coconut Milk in this recipe.

My picture-taking may be a bit ‘off’ for a while, as I search my new home for the perfect light. These photos were snapped in my daughters’ bedroom on top of their play kitchen…

Hi!
