These BEST ever banana chocolate chip cookies are chewy and flavorful with no flour or eggs plus ingredient swaps to make them healthier!

I am SO excited to share these cookies with you. I went through a bunch of recipes to finally get to this one and it is perfection. I’m picky about my cookies, and my husband is even picker, especially if we are talking about a healthy cookie. So a recipe that fits both of our requirements is pretty rare and hard to come by but this one takes the cake for the BEST healthy banana chocolate chip cookies ever.

A cookie that tastes this good will fool anyone who doesn’t know it’s “healthier”. But let’s get the nitty gritty out of the way, these cookies are not sugar free. They are not fat free. But as far as cookies go, these are on the healthy side. They are flourless (no refined flour) and are instead made with oat flour.

Don’t worry you don’t have to buy a special flour for this, all you have to do is throw some old fashioned rolled oats into your food processor or blender and pulse until they become finely ground and reach a powdered consistency. That’s it. Just be sure to measure your oat flour after you grind the oats, not before.

You can use coconut oil or butter in this recipe, I’ve tried both with great results. You do need at least a 1/3 cup, so don’t skip it all together trying to take all of the fat out of your cookies. They need it for consistency and flavor.

Dark brown sugar helps to boost the flavor of the cookies BUT light brown sugar works perfectly fine as well. As far as the chocolate chips go, you can use up the amount to a full cup if you really want to (for regular sized chocolate chips) but obviously they are healthier if you keep it on the lesser side. Just depends on how healthy you really want your cookies to be. Dark chocolate has antioxidants and is said to be better for you so keep that in mind when deciding but know that I love these with semi sweet or dark. Both are great!
