They have honey, oats, and raisins in them, that makes them healthy!
Right?
I won’t lie: if I’m looking down at a plate with a chocolate chip cookie and an oatmeal cookie on it, I’m going to take the chocolate chip cookie. That being said, I do still like oatmeal cookies and, when I’m feeling like I need to strive for something a touch healthier than a traditional chocolate chip cookie, I’ll whip up a batch of oatmeals.
I love this recipe for many reasons. The main two reasons are because these are quick to make and they are yummy. What more is there to look for in a cookie recipe?
If you don’t have brown sugar, you can substitute the 1/4 cup brown sugar with 1/4 cup regular sugar with a touch of molasses added to it.
