oatmeal cookies
Hi Robert,
At the top of the OH page there is a blank space. If you type in Sugar free oatmeal cookies it will bring up a whole lot of recipes for SF Oatmeal cookies. Or you can go to Forums / then to Show All Forums / then go to bottom left box and click on recipes. You can search there for SF oatmeal cookies also.
Good luck,
Barbara
Many of us follow different protocols for post-operative eating. For those of us who are particularly sensitive to carbohydrates, even sugar-free oatmeal cookies might not be a good choice-- also, for those of us for whom such treats were trigger foods, what might be a "diet-safe" food choice, but still trigger cravings for less healthy items. As with everything, it doesn't hurt to check with your nutritionist.
Steve is right, but here is a recipe you might enjoy...from www.fitnessandfreebies
Sugar-Free Oatmeal Cookies
Ingredients:
1 cup uncooked oats
1/3 cup Splenda sweetener
1 cup raisins or other small pieces of dried fruit
6 ounces pureed plums
1/4 cup egg substitute
1 tablespoon honey
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350-degrees.
Combine all ingredients in a large bowl and mix well.
Drop by large serving spoonfuls onto a baking sheet sprayed with nonstick cooking spray.
Bake for 12-15 minutes or until browned.
Cookies are "cake-like" and don't spread much so they can be placed close together.
Recipe makes about two-dozen cookies.

I LOVE Oatmeal cookies, but all carbs are a trigger for me, so I have to be really careful. Also, sometimes it is sooo easy to lie to oneself, or rather persuade oneself that it is ok to eat a whole bunch of something because it is low sugar, or low fat....Portion control is still important....
Good luck, and Enjoy
