As a kid, I loved oreos. But not really the chocolate cookie. My favorite thing was to eat all the “stuff” inside. Actually, my favorite kind of oreo was the kind that had vanilla cookies. The stuff inside seemed creamier or something.
Thankfully I’ve wisened up and learned to appreciate a good chocolate cookie. My friends and family have been asking for a paleo oreos recipe for quite some time. I finally decided to get in the kitchen and make them. Boy am I glad I did!
The chocolate cookies have a bit more softness to them than traditional oreos, giving them a “homemade” flair. The cream is creamy and pairs perfectly with the cookies; the end result is pure paleo oreos deliciousness!
I use Vital Proteins Collagen Peptides to add extra protein and gut-healing properties to these paleo oreos. It also makes everything the perfect texture! Guys, this stuff is amazing and I love putting it in everything from coffee to muffins to smoothies to cookies!

- Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and grease a large baking sheet with a bit of coconut oil.
- Whisk the eggs, coconut oil, maple syrup, and melted chocolate in a large mixing bowl.
- Add the cocoa, coconut flour, cassava flour, collagen, salt, and vanilla and mix well.
- Drop on the baking sheet my scant tablespoonfuls and flatten out a bit.
- Bake for 15 minutes and then cool completely.
- In a medium-sized bowl, stir together all of the “cream” ingredients.
- Sandwich a generous scoop of “cream” in between 2 cooled cookies and repeat until all of the cookies are gone. You will probably have a little extra filling.

Can I sub tapioca starch for the cassava flour? Haven’t taken the plunge and bought cassava yet!
Heather Resler says
I’m not sure because I’ve never tried it, but I can tell you that buying the cassava is worth it! 🙂
Terri says
Thanks Heather. Not sure they ship to Canada for reasonable! Maybe I’ll find some in my travels somewhere. 🙂

These cookie look like something else! I will have to play with the filling…My kids don;t go for coconut like me! I am thinking your soft pretzels will be for an after school snack this week!
Heather Resler says
Maybe you could use some palm shortening? Hope you and your family have an awesome week 🙂
