I like to use my favorite all-natural zero calorie brown sugar (see the recipe card below) but you can swap that out for coconut sugar, monk fruit sweetener, or regular light brown sugar.
And you can make these gluten free by swapping out the flour for gluten free flour blend, and gluten-free oats too.

How to Make Healthy Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Cookies
I love to use parchment paper whenever I can. It makes clean up extra easy, and also means I don’t have to oil the cookie sheet ahead of time. This saves both calories and time.
If you don’t have or don’t want to use parchment paper, you can just grease the cookie sheets ahead of time or use non-stick baking sheets.
How to Make Skinny Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees, cover 2-3 rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a small bowl combine the flour, baking soda and salt, set aside.
- In a large bowl or standing mixer whip butter and sugar, add in egg and vanilla.
- Add in apple sauce and mix. Then add in the flour mixture and mix until just combined.
- Pour in the oats and chocolate chips and mix until just combined, over-mixing will make tough cookies. Then place in fridge for 15 minutes to firm up.
- Use a spoon to scoop golf ball sized dollops of cookie dough, give enough room for a little spreading.
- Bake for 10- 15 minutes until golden brown.
