Sugar Freeish Cholesterol Lowering Oatmeal Cookies Splenda Recipes

Steps:

• 1. In a large bowl, cream together the butter, brown sugar, egg and vanilla until smooth. In a separate bowl, whisk the flour, baking soda, cinnamon and salt together. Stir this into the butter/sugar mixture. Stir in the oats, raisins and walnuts, if using them.
• 2. At this point you can either chill the dough for a bit in the fridge and then scoop it, or scoop the cookies onto a sheet and then chill the whole tray before baking them. You could also bake them right away, if you're impatient, but I do find that they end up slighly less thick. (I personally never chill mine)
• 3. The cookies should be two inches apart on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake them for 10 to 12 minutes (your baking time will vary, depending on your oven and how cold the cookies were going in), taking them out when golden at the edges but still a little undercooked-looking on top. Let them sit on the hot baking sheet for five minutes before transferring them to a rack to cool.
• 4. I have recently made these and added crunchy peanut butter instead of the other nuts and we loved it =) Try just adding some peanut butter to a cookie or two when you bake them just to see if you will like them thats what I did then added to the whole batter.

Steps:

• 1. In a large bowl, beat the egg whites and oil with the salt and sugars.
• 2. Add applesauce, raisins, vanilla, soda, and cinnamon. Stir well.
• 3. Stir in the oats.
• 4. Add flour and mix just until well incorporated.
• 5. Chill dough, covered for an hour or longer.
• 6. Make 1 1/2 inch balls and bake 12 to a sheet in a 375 degree oven (350 in a convection oven) for about ten minutes. Remove from oven a rest on a rack for a minute and then use a spatula to transfer to a rack to cool thoroughly. Store airtight. Makes 36 cookies.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
• Mix together the oil, milk, vanilla, molasses, baking soda, and salt.
• Add the flour. You can use regular flour if you don't have whole wheat.
• Add the Splenda. It will look really weird, not like regular cookie dough. Make sure it's mixed really well before going to the next step. (Walmart now carries a generic Altern, which works just like Splenda and saves a couple bucks.).
• Mix in the rolled oats. This will be a challenge, it will look weird and you have to use your hands to get it to all mix in and stick together. Make sure you mix and squish enough that all the oats are moistened. Might need to add a smidgen more milk to stick things together. I use regular oats, not the quick oats. They have a lower glycemic index as it takes the body longer to break them down. Also, the cookies are chewier so you have to eat them more slowly. Can use quick oats if you wish.
• Add a few chopped nuts or raisins here if you want. I recommend trying a plain batch first though.
• Take walnut sized amounts, squish some more to make sure it all sticks together then flatten between your hands and lay out gently on an ungreased cookie sheet. You can put them close together, they don't expand much.
• Bake for 8-10 minutes in center of oven. My oven takes about 9 minutes. The bottoms will get lightly browned. Do a test batch. They get too dry very quickly if overcooked.

Steps:

• Preheat oven 350.
• Cream butter and both sugars.
• Add eggs one at a time.
• Add vanilla.
• Combine dry ingredients
• Add to butter mixture.
• Stir in oats.
• Drop by tablespoon full onto ungreased cookie sheet.
• Bake 10-12 minutes.
