LOW-FAT, HIGH FIBER OATMEAL RAISIN COOKIES



Low-Fat, High Fiber Oatmeal Raisin Cookies image

I adapted Quaker Oatmeal's "Vanishing Oatmeal Raisen Cookies" recipe to lower the fat and increase the fiber (and my husband didn't even notice!) For less sugar and even lower fat, I sometimes substitute Splenda for the granulated sugar and EnerG egg substitue for the eggs.

HIGH FIBER OATMEAL COOKIES

These taste great especially the second day. I prefer to make cookies with high-fiber and this one fits the bill. I got the recipe off the internet.

Categories     Drop Cookies

Time 10m

Yield 36 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 cup flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup butter, softened
1 1/2 cups quick-cooking oats
2 large eggs (lightly beaten)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon almond extract
1 cup raisins
1 cup dates (chopped)
1 cup pecans (chopped)

Steps:

  • In a separate bowl, stir softened butter with brown sugar until well mixed.
  • Stir sifted dry ingredients into butter-sugar mixture.
  • Stir in dry oats and beaten eggs.
  • Add vanilla and almond extracts; mix thoroughly.
  • Stir in raisins, chopped dates and chopped pecans; mix well until batter is firm.
  • Drop small dollops (about 1 heaping teaspoon) 2 inches apart onto a greased cookie sheet.
  • Bake for 18 minutes in 350 degree oven until golden brown.
  • Remove from cookie sheet, lay flat, and cool for 10 minutes before serving. (I liked them better the second day.).

Tips:

  • Choose the right oats: Steel-cut oats or rolled oats are the best choice for high-fiber oatmeal cookies, as they provide more fiber and a chewier texture than instant oats.
  • Use a combination of flours: Using a combination of all-purpose flour and whole wheat flour or oat flour will increase the fiber content of your cookies without compromising on taste or texture.
  • Add a variety of nutrient-rich ingredients: To boost the nutritional value of your oatmeal cookies, add ingredients like chia seeds, flaxseeds, nuts, and dried fruits. These ingredients are packed with fiber, healthy fats, and antioxidants.
  • Sweeten your cookies naturally: Instead of using refined sugar, opt for natural sweeteners like honey, maple syrup, or coconut sugar. These sweeteners provide a lower glycemic index and a more complex flavor profile.
  • Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough will result in tough cookies. Mix the ingredients just until they are combined, and be careful not to overwork the dough.
  • Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough before baking will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much in the oven.
  • Bake the cookies at the right temperature: Bake the cookies at a moderate temperature (350°F or 175°C) for the recommended amount of time, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are set.

Conclusion:

High-fiber oatmeal cookies are a delicious and nutritious snack or breakfast option. By following these tips, you can create delicious and healthy oatmeal cookies that are packed with fiber and other essential nutrients. Experiment with different ingredients and flavors to find your favorite combination, and enjoy these cookies as part of a balanced diet.
