Hey Jen- I tried these last night-- except I added 2 eggs. Oh I also added vanilla.

They are SO yummy! Thank you soooo much!

Try the muffins ID-they are hard to eat only 1, but atleast they are super good for you. You could eat the whole batch on your high carb day. I just wanna eat the whole batch any day! Check out how i changed the recipe a bit.

I think this is the first time I ever cooked anything, and it turned out great. These cookies rule! Nice and healthy to, only question is with those raisons am I getting a lot of the sugar I try o so hard to avoid?

Posted by: Stacey

You can leave the raisins Out!!

I did, and they still taste Awesome!

All over that!

Posted by: jaim91

I tried making them, but they were too dry. It's like I didn't add enough eggs or water or something...?

Posted by: atherjen

add more applesauce

Posted by: jaim91

Thanks for the tip!

No matter how many times I try to fix it, I still can't view the thread that says, "To view all recipies here"

Posted by: atherjen

hmmm I never tried that function before..

Posted by: jaim91

If you figure out a way to fix it, please let me know.

Posted by: Fitgirl70

I wonder if I could sub the flour for protein powder.....anyone tried that? I'm looking for a healthy oatmeal cookie recipe

Posted by: atherjen

hmmmmm I think that would work! consistancy might be a lil diff but its worth a shot!

Posted by: Jill

Ive made something similar with oats, pp, and egg whites, they were VERY dry. I guess the apple sauce would help keep it moist.

Posted by: Stacey

I made these oatmeal cookies Monday night

Yum!!

Love them.. But I don't add in nuts or raisins... and I used 1/2c applesauce--and half cup of whole wheat!

Love em'
great snack!
