Need a sweet treat? These cookies will fix your craving rather quickly! It's cold and rainy in CO today...and I couldn't possibly let a dreary day pass by without baking something:-)
I have adapted these cookies from an oatmeal raisin cookie recipe on chocolatecoveredkatie.com.
This recipe only makes about 6 cookies, so make sure to double or triple the recipe to your preference!
Most healthy gluten free cookie recipes I have not been too impressed with-It's hard to make a healthy cookie recipe taste good, let alone make it gluten free. This recipe is the first one that passed the bloggable test;-) Not only are they gluten free, but they are also dairy, soy and egg free. If you don't require gluten free, use regular oats instead. Enjoy!
