All Natural Oatmeal Cookies


these came from this site:

http://www.wholegraingourmet.com/recipes/43-cookies/58-healthy-oatmeal-cookies.html

a lot of the recipes have sugar in them that I won't use but many of them don't. I have a whole file in my computer of recipes from there that I want to try. So far, so good. We love these ones.

  1. Just coming here to update that these cookies are GONE and another batch has been requested by all. I was beginning to think that "whole food" sweets were more satisfying because of their goodness and that I wouldn't over-eat them. I could be wrong....while these are satisfying, it certainly is tempting to go grab another one(or two).
