Double Chocolate Walnut Oatmeal Cookies
Making these Double Chocolate Walnut Oatmeal Cookies is so easy. If you're looking for delicious chocolate cookies but which is flourless and healthy, you should make these decadent cookies.
Chocolate makes everything better. And I just love Oatmeal cookies. I love how chewy my cookies get when I use Oatmeal flour instead of AP Flour. It just enhances the texture and taste of the cookies.
It's been a while since I baked these cookies for the first time. The first time was just an experiment when I had some leftover double chocolate mix and I added some Oatmeal flour to it and folded it with some oil to make my cookies. They turned out so great.
These babies needed no special instructions to follow or any special trick. Just your usual cookie dough (which was yummmm BTW!) and within 5 minutes they sat down and got perfectly crinkled. Don't you just love to watch cookie dough sitting down! It's so cathartic and relaxing.
I have also used Walnuts in my Chocolate Oatmeal cookies recipe. Walnuts and chocolate are a match made in heaven. (Reminds me of my favorite Chocolate Walnut Fudge! mmm soooo gooood ). Also, Walnuts add a nutty flavor to your cookies which just makes it more chewy and crunchy with a bite.
Today I'll share with y'all the best Double Chocolate Walnut Oatmeal Cookies recipe.
How to make flourless Double Chocolate Walnut Oatmeal Cookies?
To make flourless Double Chocolate Oatmeal Cookies just use Oats flour. You might think that Oats is a grain but Oats flour is actually a simple and gluten-free flour which is perfect for your baking options. It's easy to prepare and also tastes so good. Just use old fashioned Oats and roll them to make Oatmeal flour. You can also use Almond flour to make Flourless Double Chocolate Oatmeal Cookies. However, I did not use Almond flour as then the sweet flavor of almond will come in the way of walnuts and chocolate and the flavors won't make any sense!
How to make Sugar Free Double Chocolate Walnut Oatmeal Cookies?
This Double Chocolate Walnut Oatmeal cookie is totally sugar-free. I haven't added a pinch of sugar into making these cookies and they turn out just perfect. Also, I have used semi-sweet chocolate chips for making my double chocolate batter. If you want to add some sweetness to your cookies you can add a teaspoon of maple syrup or honey and that should work just fine. However, avoid it as the flavors of these cookies only come out with dark chocolate.
How to make Double Chocolate Walnut Oatmeal Cookies?
First, start with mixing some cocoa powder with semi-sweet chocolate chips and oats flour.
Once everything gets mixed well, add a spoonful of Yogurt, Vinegar, Vanilla Essence to it. Now add a half cup of vegetable oil into the cookie dough.
Also, throw in a spoon of baking soda and mix everything well using a handheld mixer or stand mixer.
Now add in the chopped walnuts and mix that in with a spoon.

Notes
- Adding heavy cream to mix in the cocoa powder and chocolate chips is totally optional. You can always skip it and trust me it won't make any difference to your cookies.
- Yogurt or Sour Cream along with vinegar is used as a fermenting agent since we are not using eggs. Technically, if you are using Eggs, then you can skip the vinegar & yogurt. However, even of you skip the vinegar, a spoon of yogurt just makes these cookies taste so much better. So, I would suggest you still use it.
