This recipe uses whole grain oat flour. You can use gluten-free oat flour if needed. Even if you don't eat whole grains or have severely reduced the frequency of eating them this recipe can be extremely helpful at times. I like this recipe is for two important reasons. #1  Mainly because oat flour is so much cheaper than gluten-free and grain-free almond flour or coconut flour. #2  Oat flour resembles traditional wheat flour so much that people find it hard to believe these Chocolate Chip Cookies are Wholetarian (made with whole foods). Since Chocolate Chip Cookies are likely the most loved cookies of all time you know the need to make them is going to arise sooner or later. Whether it is for yourself during your own transitional period, for that rare treat or for when you are asked to bring cookies for a party and your integrity really wants to keep it healthy. For a variety of reasons, you'll be glad you have this recipe. Note: Whole sugars vary in sweetness so you may have to make adjustments to this recipe depending on the type of whole granulated sugar you use as well as the level of sweetness you prefer. Just taste the batter and add more sweetener if needed.
