There are two kinds of coconut oil on the market, unrefined or virgin and refined.
Which coconut oil to use in this recipe?
Refined coconut oil has basically no scent or flavor.
It’s made from dried coconuts. Unrefined or virgin coconut oil has a pretty strong coconut flavor and scent. This oil is made from fresh coconuts.
In this recipe I used refined. Mainly for the reason, my kids don’t love the taste of coconut so, using the refined we still get the health benefits of coconut oil just without the coconut scent or flavor.
Both come in a solid form. Depending on the recipe and your preference both work great in baked recipes like this one.
First time baking with coconut oil…
If you haven’t baked with coconut oil, this is an easy recipe to try out and I promise these cookies are so delicious. Crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside.
I under baked them just a bit to keep them chewier.

What you’ll need to make these yummy cookies…
Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup solid coconut oil, I used refined. For a more coconut flavor, you can use unrefined
- 1 tbsp ground flaxseed mixed with 3 tbsp water, set aside, or use one egg or egg white.
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup light brown sugar, not packed
- 1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 tsp fine sea salt
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1 cup all purpose flour
- 1/4 to 1/2 cup whole wheat pastry flour or all purpose flour. Start with 1/4 cup, if needed add the next 1/4 cup for a thick batter. You can use just all purpose flour and omit the pastry flour
- 1 1/4 cup semisweet or bittersweet chocolate chips
Here’s how to make a batch of best ever coconut oil chocolate chip cookies…
Directions:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees, line baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
- Using a stand mixer or a hand held mixer,(just bought this one since it happens to be on sale at the moment. Love it!) combine the coconut oil, flax mixture along with the sugars and vanilla extract. Mix until completely combined. The mixture may look like it’s separating. This is fine. Once you add the flour it will all come together.
- In a mixing bowl combine the 1 1/4 cups flour along with the rest of the dry ingredients. Mix with a whisk. Carefully add in a little flour mixture at a time. If needed add in the 1/4 cup of flour. The batter should be thick yet soft. Add in chips and just mix until they are incorporated into the batter.
- Place in fridge for 10 minutes or up to 30 minutes.
- Scoop out balls of batter onto prepared cookie sheet. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes. The cookies should slightly spring back when finished and be lightly browned on top. Try not to over bake.
- Set pan on cooling rack for 5 minutes then slide the parchment paper off onto cooling rack and let cool another 10 minutes. Store in a sealed container on the counter up to 3 days.
Enjoy!!
