Ingredients

3 cups old fashioned rolled oats
1 1/2 cups unbleached organic all-purpose flour
5 tablespoons Brewers Yeast
3 tablespoons ground flaxseed
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
12 tablespoons unsalted butter
4 tablespoons unrefined virgin coconut oil
1 1/2 cups sugar
2 large eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups dark chocolate chips
1/2 cup chopped almonds

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350F
In a large bowl, whisk together the oats, flour, yeast, flaxseeds, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt.
In the bowl of an electric mixer or with a hand mixer, cream together the butter and coconut oil until creamy. Add the sugar and continue to beat 5 minutes, until fluffy.
Add the eggs one at a time and beat until combined. Add in the vanilla.
Gradually add in the dry ingredients, beating on low speed until just combined. Stir in the chocolate chips and almonds until combined.
Using a mini ice cream scoop or 1 tablespoon measure, scoop the dough onto a silpat-lined baking sheet.
Bake for 10-12 minutes, until golden brown.
