The oatmeal cookies…
Are DELICIOUS!!! I got the recipe from:
The recipe calls for pecans, which I knew would NOT go over well with my crew. (I'm not a huge pecan fan myself.) So I tried to substitute more oats for the pecans. I think I overdid it LOL. The cookies are still REALLY good, but just too oat-y. Also, the recipe says to put them on by the scant tablespoonful. Get out your tablespoon and actually measure - don't just get out big spoons and glop them on there. There is a lot of fat in the recipe (coconut oil and butter, so they are good fats), and the cookies spread out while they cook. So scant is necessary!
It would be very easy to substitute chocolate chips (or sugar-free if you're super concerned about the carbs) for the pecans. I may try that next time.
If you follow the recipe exactly, there are 3 grams of carbs and 4 grams of protein per cookie! And they are YUMMY to boot!
