heat oven to 350. wisk together wet ingredients in a small bowl. In a large bowl, stir together thoroughly the dry ingredients including the chips. Make a well in the center and pour in the syrup mixture. Stir together until fully incorporated, but try not to overmix. Drop dough by teaspoonful onto ungreased cookie sheet and bake for 12-15 minutes or until lightly browned. Cool on rack.

Variations
substitute 2 t vanilla for 1 t vanilla, 1 t almond extract
add 1/2 C walnuts ground into a meal

That is our favorite chocolate chip cookie recipe because it's "whole grain" and refined sugar free. We use non dairy, refined sugar free chocolate chips. I am always sneaking the dough
