SO GOOD (FOR YOU) OATMEAL COOKIES!



So Good (For You) Oatmeal Cookies! image

Due to making a deal with my sister to not have any SUGAR, I was forced to recreate some of our favorite treats, using natural alternatives! I'm happy to say...I like these better than the REAL DEAL! They are packed full of "good stuff", so you can eat them, guilt free (for the most part). In fact, my kids say that it's just too hard to only eat one! :0) They come out moist and chewy. You could, also, easily turn these into a great oatmeal chocolate chip cookie! So, have fun experimenting, and let me know what you think!

Yield 30-40 cookies, 30-40 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/4 cup butter (1/2 a stick)
1 cup honey
1/3 cup unsweetened applesauce
4 ounces vanilla yogurt (I use the organic vanilla at Trader Joe's)
2 teaspoons vanilla
2 eggs
1/4 cup flax seed meal
1 cup whole wheat flour

1 -1 1/2 cup raisins (put in as much as you like!)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Cream together butter and honey.

  • Add in flax meal.
  • Add in whole wheat flour, oats, salt, baking soda and cinnamon. Mix until fully combined. ***Dough will seem a little runny.

Tips and Conclusion

If you're looking for a healthy and delicious oatmeal cookie recipe, look no further. These cookies are made with whole wheat flour, oats, dried cranberries and nuts, and they're sweetened with honey and maple syrup. They're also gluten-free and vegan if you use gluten-free oats and vegan butter.

Here are some tips for making the best oatmeal cookies:

  • Use a good quality oats. Steel-cut oats or rolled oats will work best in this recipe. Avoid using quick oats, as they will make the cookies too soft.
  • Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing the dough will make the cookies tough. Mix the dough just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Chill the dough before baking. Chilling the dough will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Bake the cookies at a high temperature. This will help the cookies brown and develop a crispy exterior.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before enjoying them. This will allow the flavors to develop and the cookies to set.

Once you've tried these oatmeal cookies, you'll never go back to the store-bought kind again. They're healthy, delicious, and easy to make. So what are you waiting for? Give them a try today!
