I just looked at your Cinnamon Apple Oatmeal Cookies Recipe and since I have become a fan of “simple” fixes, I was wondering if you had ever tried this with a Spice Cake as the base adding the oatmeal, butter, egg, applesauce, vanilla and diced apples. This sounds like a great recipe for moist, chewy cookies.
No, I haven’t tried that but I think I am going to, sounds like it would be great!
looks delicious! can’t wait to try it!
These are in my oven right now and smell delish! I added and extra tablespoon of applesauce (it felt like the right thing to do, the dough was super fally-aparty) and made them about twice the size suggested.. Can’t wait to eat!
Can these be made as bars?
Made the cookies.. very good.!
Would like to know the carbs and sugar in each cookie. Very good.!!
Just made these cookies followed receipe to the t. Why don’t they flatten out.
Typically this happens if there is too much flour. Be sure to scoop and level the flour.
