Watch as Patty teaches how to make oatmeal cookies with all natural ingredients, the best part is these delicious treats are low in fat and high in fiber, not only will they cure any craving for cookies, they wont add to your waist line!INGREDIENTS:
- 1 cup whole oats
- 1/2 cup white whole wheat flour
- 1/2 cup chopped dates (you can substitute with raisins or dried cranberries if you'd like.)
- 1 tsp. dried stevia - If you don't have stevia you can use 3/4 cup of brown sugar, or an artificial sweetener.
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 cup applesauce - The applesauce is to replace butter, or oil.
- 1/2 tsp. Tahitian Ground Vanilla
- 1 tsp. Cinnamon
- 1/2 cup walnuts
DIRECTIONS
Pre-heat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C.) Mix together flour, oats, baking powder, baking soda, Tahitian ground, cinnamon, and dried stevia, add applesauce, dates and walnuts. When all ingredients are thoroughly mixed, roll into 1 inch balls, you may use the bottom of a cup to flatten cookies so that are in the traditional cookie shape or keep them in a fun ball shape as we did. Place cookies on a greased cookie sheet, bake for 10-12 minutes, let cool for 10-15 minutes then enjoy!

You make it look so easy.
B. Surfer,
Believe it or not, these cookies are super easy. Even the kids enjoy making the little ball shape!
Try'em out! they're not only yummy but healthy!
wow, i have been looking for an oatmeal snack bar to bring to school with that was easy to make, didn't require a ton of ingredients, low fat and healthy and I have tried quite a few yet struggled to find the "one". This one is THE ONE!! You have to try it. It's not a traditional commercial sugary oatmeal cookie, so those looking for the taste of one will be disappointed. But if you like healthy treats, you will like this one. They truly are delicious because the dates/raisins give it the sweetness and the apple the moistness. And they don't take long to bake!! Only 20 mins for mine (I made them slightly bigger balls). I still can't believe that I was able to make a baked oatmeal snack that didn't require eggs or milk or butter! Thanks a million, Patty!!!
