Oatmeal Cookies
I love cookies. I love cookies even more if they are a little healthier than your traditional cookie. My kids needed something for their lunches, so I made these last night. I took a basic oatmeal cookie recipe and changed the ingredients to healthier options. I love the result. Give them a try!
1 1/2 cups white whole wheat flour
1/2 t salt
1 t baking soda
1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce
2 T honey
3 cups oatmeal
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup agave
2 T flaxseed mixed in 6 T water (or 2 eggs)
1 t vanilla
1 t cinnamon
1/2 cup raisins
Mix ingredients together. Put tablespoon size balls onto cookie sheet. Bake at 350 for 11 minutes. Try not to eat all the cookie dough like I did.
