Healthy-ish Irish Oatmeal Cookies image

On the back of a McCann's® Quick Cooking Irish Oatmeal box I noticed a recipe for 'Irish Oatmeal Cookies.' I more or less followed the recipe substituting things here and there, and the results were über-delicious. Perfect for a coffee or tea break snack or breakfast. I would have added some cinnamon if my hubby didn't dislike that flavor so much. Please try it! Here's what I did.

These cookies are a great way to use up leftover bananas. They're also a good source of potassium.

I'm allergic to nuts, so I used sunflower seeds instead of walnuts in these cookies. They turned out great!

These cookies are a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

I made these cookies gluten-free by using almond flour instead of all-purpose flour. They turned out great!

These cookies are a bit too dry for my taste. I think I'll try adding some more butter next time.
