These cookies are a little too spicy for me. I think I'll use less ginger next time.

These cookies are a great way to use up leftover oatmeal. I always have some leftover oatmeal in my fridge, so it's nice to have a recipe that I can use it in.

These oatmeal gingersnaps are the perfect fall treat! They're chewy, spicy, and full of flavor. I love that they're made with oats, which makes them a little healthier than traditional gingersnaps.
