so --- I needed a cheat ---- and I wanted it to be sugar free, dairy free (with the excpetion of eggs), wheat and gluten free..... here is what I cam eup with ---- easy - and tasted yummy!!!!!!!! A CLEANER cheat option. No butter - so lower fat - no real sugar, uses honey instead (more natural sweetener). Was a cheat without being too deadly!
Chocolate Chip Peanut Butter Oatmeal Allergy and sugar free cookies
3 cups gluten free oatmeal (use regular if you don't have gluten allergy)
1 cup sugar free/unsweetened apple sauce
1/2 cup honey
1/2 cup natural peanut butter
2 eggs
(mix all of the above in a bowl - let sit)
1 tsp baking soda and 1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp sea salt
3 tbsp cinnamon
3/4 cup brown rice flour (use whole wheat if you don't have wheat allergy)
1 cup dark chocolate dairy free chips (use regular dark choc chips if you don't have allergy)
mix the following together in another bowl - then add it to the other bowl of wet ingredients... mix until blended.
drop cookies onto pam sprayed pan - bake at 350 degrees for 13-15 minutes or until golden - and not over done. Remove and enjoy warm or for later..... YUMMMMM!!!!
Another version --- omit choc chips and use raisons or other dried fruit instead - for a fruiter cookie! I also did a batch with 2 tbsp cocoa powder to the mix for a choc choc cookie!!!
Careful though - you might want to half the recipe so you don't eat the entire batch - 3 cups of oats in one sitting can be hard on the tummy!
