In reply to Susan. Hi Susan. No problem. Well, everyone has their own understanding of "healthy". If you divide 1/2 cup butter and 1/2 cup sugar by 20, it's about 1/3 tablespoon of each per a cookie! So, even if I eat 5 cookies per day, I have consumed less than 2 tablespoons of each. Well, that is reasonable to me. If I am afraid to eat 2 tablespoons of butter a day on occasion, it means I do not have healthy relationship with food. But to each their own. Some eat cookies made with applesauce only and enjoy them. Thanks but it's not for me.

Made these today. They are OK but I’ll keep looking, and I wouldn’t call any recipe that uses 1/2 cup of butter and 1/2 cup of sugar for 20 cookies “healthy”. When making them, you’ll want to shape and flatten them to the size you want because they don’t spread much at all.

These are wonderful! I did sub raisins and a few walnuts for the chocolate chips because I didn’t have the chips. But I will try them next time for sure. Thanks so much!

I have found that weighing my flour produces consistent good results as opposed to measuring the flour in a cup even when done properly I have had different results. This may help people. Also whisking the flour in the container may help those measuring with a cup.

In reply to K. So glad you liked these cookies. I would cook for shorter amount of time, cookies dry out as you bake them longer. Should help! Also make sure to measure flour using scoop and level method.

These are yummy! I followed the recipe (used butter and coconut sugar) but it seems that the cookies came out a bit dry. Any ideas or suggestions? Thank you!

In reply to Kimberly. What type of oats did you use? If you would like more crunchy than chew, feel free to sub butter for coconut oil.

I made them they’re very chewy maybe I should have blended the oats a little ? Not like chewy on paper. Have to find something to bake for my work bake sale I’ll put these in my freezer
