9 of the Best Clean Eating Cookie Recipes

I have 9 of the best ever clean eating cookie recipes. They are all so yummy you can’t resist them. You have to try them all! Making and eating cookies, if you are on a Clean Eating diet, can be quite confusing and a little difficult to understand. There are many different kinds of Clean Eating flour and some you can make yourself just by taking ingredients like almonds, oats and cashews and blending them in your blender into flour.

For the purpose of this post I decided to stick with flours that most people already have sitting in their cupboards or are easy to get. Also flour that are less expensive and more easily affordable and accessible. That’s why I stuck with quite a few recipes that use whole wheat flour. Spelt flour is one of my favorite flour too. It is not technically gluten-free and for these purposes it doesn’t need to be. I like spelt flour because it is more easily digestable and less offensive to your stomach. Even though I am supposed to eat gluten-free, I find that I can eat spelt flour and be just fine.

Something to note is that when eating clean and using oats, always either use old fashioned oats or steel cut oats. I know some people that eat clean or think they are eating clean that eat quick oats. Quick oats are not clean. Why? Because they have been processed more times that old fashioned oats, that why they are smaller and cook faster. Because they have been processed more, more of the vitamins and minerals and good stuff has disappeared.

If you want the oats for a specific recipe to be smaller all you have to do is put them in the blender and pulse them for a few seconds and they will be a lot smaller. Don’t blend them too long or you’ll end up with oat flour. Yes, that is how oat flour is made.

5 of these Clean Eating cookie recipes are made with whole wheat flour. You can’t really substitute whole wheat flour straight across from an regular flour recipe. The texture of whole wheat flour is more course and it doesn’t taste as good. That’s why you need to just use these recipes I have here because they have been tried and tested and proven to be successful using these other kinds of flour.

The question is – what flours are Clean Eating? Basically, you have to read the labels and make sure they are whole grains. I found a blog post that I think is awesome. She explains very well how to decide if certain flours and many other things are actually clean eating. Please check it out, it’s called The Gracious Pantry.

I also added a new aspect to this post, underneath the title for each recipe I added the main ingredient in the recipe. I’m hoping it will help you choose the recipes you want to check out without having to spend a lot of time clicking on each one to see what the main ingredients are.
