A healthier version of my kids’ favourite snack; Chocolate Chip Cookies! Made with wholemeal flour, oats and reduced sugar.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"healthier<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

My kids love nothing more than a big chocolate chip cookie for an afternoon snack. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

When we’re having a hectic week they usually end up coming from a packet from the supermarket!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But when I have some time to spend in the kitchen I like to make my own slightly healthier homemade version.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

These cookies are made with wholemeal flour and rolled oats which provide slow-releasing carbs that help keep the kids full until dinnertime. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The cookies also contain sugar, so they are not super super healthy. But it’s a lot less sugar than you find in shop bought cookies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The cookies themselves are\u00a0very easy to make! And they are certainly ones you can get the kids involved with if they enjoy baking. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This recipe makes 10 large\u00a0cookies but you could make 15 smaller ones too. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I sometimes make a double batch of the cookie dough. Then I freeze half of it so that I have some ready to bake for busy weeks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once baked, the cookies will keep well in an airtight container for up to 4 days…. if they last that long!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
