Servings:

Ingredients

¾ cup coconut oil
¾ cup packed brown sugar light
½ cup granulated sugar
1 and ⅓ cup all-purpose flour
¾ teaspoon baking soda
½ to 1 teaspoon cinnamon to taste
¼ teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons vanilla extract
1 large egg
2 and ¼ cups old-fashioned oats
1 cup chocolate chips semi-sweet

Instructions

Preheat air fryer to 350°F.
In a large bowl, beat together your brown sugar, granulated sugar, and coconut oil.
Mix together flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt in a separate bowl.
Add ⅓ of the flour mixture to the sugar and coconut oil mixture. Mix until combined. Repeat until the flour and sugar mixture are incorporated.
Add in vanilla extract and egg. Mix until combined.
Add in the oats. Mix until combined
Fold in the chocolate chips.
Add a piece of parchment paper to the bottom of the air fryer basket.
Using a 2 tablespoon cookie scoop, form balls of cookie dough. Add as many dough balls as you can to the size of the air fryer basket making sure to leave at least 2 inches of room for them to bake and expand.
With a preheated air fryer, cook your cookies at 350°F for five minutes or until golden brown. (Depending on the size of air fryer you will have to repeat the step until all of your dough is cooked. See note.)
Once your cookies are done in the air fryer, transfer them to a cooling rack to allow them to cool.

Notes

You can also make a small batch and freeze the remaining amount of dough. It’s best to roll them into the cookie-sized balls so that they are separated and ready to be popped right into the air fryer. Make sure that they are thawed before cooking them.
