Ingredients for cookies:
Avocado - 1 (peeled)
Unsalted butter - 1 stick (softened)
Dark brown sugar - 1 1/2 cups (room temp.)
Eggs - 2
Vanilla Extract - 2 tsp.
All-Purpose flour - 2 cups
Baking soda - 1 tsp.
Salt - 1 tsp.
Baking powder - 1/2 tsp.
Rolled Oats - 1 1/2 cups
Chocolate chips - 1 3/4 cups
Method of preparing the cookies:
Preheat the oven to 325°F and line a baking sheet with parchment
paper.
Scrape the avocado flesh in a large bowl, add the butter and the
brown sugar. Cream until fluffy - this should take about three minutes.
Add the eggs 1 at a time, then add the vanilla extract. Add the
flour, baking soda, salt and baking powder, combining slowly so as to
not over-mix the batter.
Add the oats and chocolate chips. Chill for 1
hour.
Using wet hands, roll the dough into 12 balls, flattening the
cookies with the palm of your hands, creating 2 1/2-inch discs.
Bake for
20 minutes. The cookies should be slightly golden brown on the edges,
but soft in the middle.
Remove from the oven and leave to rest for at least 3 minutes.
Transfer to a cooling rack, then serve immediately or store in an airtight container once cool.
This isn't my recipe, as avocado is very healthy, wanted to share it with all.
