     I thought maybe the blandness others mentioned was due to the lack of salt. I used a whole Eggland's Best egg, 1/4 brown sugar instead of white (for more richness), added a couple Tbsp of flour and a 1/2 tsp of salt, and they turned out great. So easy! - 7/19/09

     These are an awsome way to eat breakfast! I added an extra teaspoon of cinnamon, nutmeg, and used raisins and cranberries. The extra spices really picked up the flavor...These are going to be a new staple for my breakfast as they are so easy to make and conveniant to take! Thank you! - 11/3/09

     Though not the best oatmeal cookie I have ever eaten, it was pretty awesome considering it fits well with my eating plan! I followed other reviews and added pumpkin spice and extra cinnamon as well as brown sugar instead of white. Thanks for a great recipe! - 8/5/10

    I love how you made your own little twists on the recipe! I will have to try this:) Thanks!

  • BEVERLYAT1
     I loved this! I added 1/4 tsp salt, extra cinnamon, and nutmeg. I really liked the chewiness from the oatmeal. I will definitely be making these again. - 12/7/09

     These were very easy to make! They aren't packed with flavor but have more of a pleasant 'simple' sort of taste. Thanks for the recipe, I'll be making them again! - 12/20/08

     These freeze well and make it easy to have breakfast on the run. - 2/1/11

     These are great for that quick breakfast alternative. Substitued 1/2 of the sugar for stevia and used organic steel cut oats for the oatmeal, a little chewy but nothing you can't handle. Also substitued dried cranberry's for 1/2 rasins. Well def make again, thank you! - 10/7/10

     I made these with Splenda, a tsp of pumpkin pie spice, a little extra applesauce and 1/4 tsp salt. Without raisins/nuts/sugar they're 100 cal each, and incredibly delicious. Next time how can I make them "lighter" or fluffier though? Butter? More baking soda? - 7/17/10

     Thanks for a simple and great recipe. I added 1/4 tsp.sea salt, and 1/4 tsp. of pumpkin pie spice and they turned out wonderful. - 5/19/10
  • WINDOWGEEK
     WOW1 I used currants instead of raisins, and instead of regular applesauce used blueberry applesauce. I used stevia to sweeten. Will make again for sure. - 4/10/10

     Added a half tablespoon of chocolate chips for an extra 35 cals. per cookie. I'm looking forward to trying one in the morning. - 11/16/10

     I just baked these and I really like them. I was nervous about them because they looked a little strange before cooking, but they're great! I can see what people mean about them being a little bland, but I'm not sure what could be changed, I'll comment again if I find something.

    Thanks for this! - 11/7/10

     I am looking forward to trying these. Just wondered about the temp. 365 Degrees? Is that correct? And is it possible to make them little cookies? Just wondering. I am looking forward to trying them out on my DD and her friend. :)

    Yes 365 degrees is correct. And of course you can make them smaller, i would just lower the baking time and temperature. Just play around with the recipe & enjoy!

  • KENDYKENDY
     I made this last night since my son had a craving for oatmeal cookies... right in the middle of the prep, I realized we had no eggs :-s So I had to skip that ingredient and they turned out good... Also added some honey & 1/2 tsp of salt. Got approval of my son & brothers :-) Great & easy! Thx ;-) - 6/28/10
  • LAMBEAULEAP
     These turned out pretty well... I added a bit of nutmeg per other suggestions and also used 1/2 sugar and 1/2 Splenda and a mix of dried cranberries and raisins. Overall, they were pretty good - still a bit plain, but it might just be me still getting used to the taste of whole wheat flour - 6/23/10
