How to make no flour oatmeal cookies from scratch
The Ingredients
- Rolled Oats– When blended, they form a flour-like consistency. You can also use quick oats if you wish.
- Baking soda– stops the cookies from spreading too much
- Baking powder– allows the cookies to rise slightly, and have a fluffy texture.
- Granulated sweetener of choice– To provide sweetness. White sugar, brown sugar, and even sugar-free granulated sweeteners work well.
- Salt– brings out the sweetness!
- Vanilla extract– a MUST for baked goods and cookies!
- Coconut oil OR vegan butter– gives the cookies a buttery texture.
- Milk– to make the batter easy to form into cookies.
The Instructions
To start, add your rolled oats, baking powder, baking soda, granulated sweetener and salt into a high-speed blender or food processor. Pulse until all the ingredients are combined and the oats have been roughly blended.
Then, you’ll want to transfer your ingredients into a large mixing bowl. Add your vanilla extract, coconut oil (or butter) and milk of choice, and mix well, until a cookie dough remains. Use a rubber spatula and fold through your flavor ingredients of choice (see below), reserving a few to top the cookies with.
Finally, form 12 small balls of cookie dough and place them on a baking sheet or cookie tray. Press down slightly on each cookie, and top with extra flavor ingredients (e.g. raisins, chocolate chips, etc). Bake for 8-10 minutes, before removing from the oven and letting cool on the pan completely.
Flavor Variations
For all the flavor variations, make the basic no flour cookie dough base first. Then, fold through the extra ingredients to change up the flavor!

- Basic no flour cookie base
- 1/4 cup raisins (plus more for topping the cookies with)
- 1 teaspoon of cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
White Chocolate Macadamia Flourless Cookies

- 1/4 cup white chocolate chips (vegan and dairy-free, if needed)
- 2 tablespoons macadamia nuts, chopped finely

Are no flour cookies gluten-free and vegan?
Yes, these flourless cookies ARE gluten-free, provided you use gluten-free certified rolled oats (as I did).

They are also vegan, as there are no eggs, and all the chocolate brands I used were dairy-free.
Can I substitute the oil or butter to keep it low fat?
To keep the fat content lower, you can substitute the oil (or butter) for unsweetened applesauce or mashed overripe banana. However, I do not recommend this as the cookies can sometimes lack the chewy, buttery texture.
Besides, it only requires 2 tablespoons TOTAL, which, when distributed amongst all the cookies, is very minimal.
Alternatively, you can make these flourless oatmeal cookies (made with a banana!).
Can I freeze no flour cookie dough
While you can freeze many kinds of cookie doughs, this recipe is not one of them,
As it doesn’t have a huge amount of butter or oil, the dough will become brittle when frozen, and be too dry when they are ready to be baked.
Storing and Freezing No Flour Cookies
Make double and triple batches of these cookies to freeze and enjoy when the cookie craving strikes!
To store: Place leftover cookies on a plate, and cover them completely in plastic wrap. Place them in the refrigerator. They will keep fresh for up to 5 days.
To freeze: These cookies are freezer friendly POST baking, so if you’d like to enjoy them at a later time, you are welcome to freeze them!
Place the leftover cookies in a ziplock bag and place it in the freezer. They keep well in the freezer for up to 6 months.
I’d recommend writing the date 6 months from the day you make them to not forget and result in freezer burnt cookies.
To thaw: Allow cookies to thaw to room temperature before enjoying.
