unsalted butter

🥗Healthier: coconut oil

💰Cheaper: margarine

Coconut oil provides a dairy-free option while margarine is a budget-friendly alternative.

chocolate chips

🥗Healthier: dark chocolate

💰Cheaper: chocolate bars

Dark chocolate offers a richer flavor and is lower in sugar.

nuts

🥗Healthier: seeds

💰Cheaper: sunflower seeds

Seeds can provide similar crunch and nutrition at a lower cost.

coconut flakes

🥗Healthier: toasted oats

💰Cheaper: shredded wheat

Toasted oats add texture without the cost of coconut.

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

In a bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt.

In a separate bowl, cream together butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.

Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition, then stir in vanilla extract.

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined.

Fold in chocolate chips, nuts, oats, and coconut flakes until evenly distributed.

Scoop tablespoons of dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, spacing them apart.

Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are golden brown.

Remove from the oven and let cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

Dust with powdered sugar before serving, if desired.
