I Had A Request For A Special Cookie - Healthy & Tasty Sugar Free Cookie

Tweet

I had a request from a dear sweet lady for an oatmeal cookie without sugar. She wanted a healthy cookie for a child that deserved a special treat. This recipe is for you, Kate’ s Mama. I made these cookies a few years ago for some of my diabetic friends for Christmas Gifts. Most sugar free recipes still have splenda. I hate fake sugar and would rather use real sugar myself. I am concerned about the health risks with splenda. However a diabetic has no choice. I know because for about a year I was on a diabetic diet. No fun at in that diet. LOL They are very good tasting. I don’t think they are too sweet , they are soft and moist. They do not have a lot of oats in them but they are still tasty. I have used old fashioned oats as well as the quick oats. The consistency is a bit different as the quick oats are smaller. Hope your child enjoys these cookies. I do have more sugar free cookies posted and have cookie recipes posted that use applesauce.
