Awesome!! I substituted the oil with applesauce and used the whole egg instead of just the white. Also for little extra sweetness I added a 1/3 cup of mini chocolate chips. Very tasty cookie!!

I was a little skeptical at first when the cookies didn't seem to hold together well when putting them on the baking sheet, but they came out great! I do think they could be a little sweeter though.

I made some changes to make this recipe diabetic friendly. Substituted Splenda for brown sugar and Stevia for sugar. Also cut back on the oil and added applesauce. With substitutions batter was wet so added a little extra oats. Cookies came out moist and chewy. Baking batches as gifts for friends.

Great! They come together quickly, and have been received wonderfully wherever I take them.

Super soft and chewy. Not as sweet as the typical. I did half golden raisins and half craisins. Mmm.
