    Kind of blah following the recipe. I substituted bananas for the pineapple, added a tablespoon of vanilla, a tablesppon of lemon juice, a teaspoon of cloves, increased the carrots to 1 1/2 cups, and 1/2 cup more of the oat flour. Better! Next time, I'll add some almond butter. It's almost there! - 8/9/11

    The cookies are very tasty. The recipe is a little confusing because the ingredient list doesn't match the directions. However I added the nuts and raisins and substituted the sugar for splenda and they are a hit! - 11/24/08
