Low-Fat Butterscotch Oatmeal Pecan Cookies image

Wow these are good for being low-fat! Sometimes to make them even healthier, I replace half the flour with whole wheat flour, and I use 1/4 cup honey to replace half of the light corn syrup. These do not spread out at all. They are wonderful things to pop in your mouth when you want something sweet. This is a variation from Tribole's "Healthy Desserts"

OATMEAL FRUIT COOKIES (LOW FAT)



Oatmeal Fruit Cookies (Low Fat) image

Recently in the mood to make oatmeal cookies and was pleasantly surprised to find a recipe that used reduced fat margarine or butter. Adapted to suit my tastes, this cookie is soft and moist. For a crisper cookie bake at 325 degrees. Just know they won't stay crispy for more than a day, if they last that long.

Categories     Cookies     Fruit     Dessert     Bake     Low Fat

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 cup whole wheat or all purpose flour - plus up to ¼ cup if mixture is too thin
1 ½ cups quick cooking oats
½ cup packed light brown sugar
1 ½ teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon cinnamon
½ teaspoon nutmeg
½ teaspoon ginger

Cool on cookie pan for 2-3 minutes and then transfer to wire racks to cool completely. Makes approximately 3 - 3 ½ dozen small, soft cookies. Recipe is easily doubled.

Tips:

  • Use ripe bananas. The riper the bananas, the sweeter the cookies will be.
