So healthy food is something that I’ve been trying to make for a while now but there’s so much food out there that tastes so good, but isn’t healthy at all! I’ve tried to make cookies healthier and this is one said cookies I tried with.
This Oatmeal Raisin Cookies Recipe was a creation after I actually had a cookie from Subway, I know I shouldn’t have but I thought why not! After eating it I thought I could totally do better, so I did! Subway please don’t come for me, but my oatmeal cookies are so much better!
So if you were on the lookout for a very nice oatmeal raisin cookie recipe, you’ve found it. These are great for the whole family and perfect if you want to take them into work for everyone to enjoy, who doesn’t love getting brownie points at work!
Oatmeal Raisin Cookies
Why do I think this is the best oatmeal raisin cookie recipe you’ll find? Well, they taste so good. I love raisins and can sit there eating them out of the pack, but that can be a little boring so why not put them in yummy cookies, it also tricks others to enjoy them as well!
My tip with these oatmeal cookies would be, follow the recipe. A lot of people, myself included have had issues in the past with making cookies. They might spread out too much or not at all, they could fall flat or rise like cakes! Make sure you measure your ingredients out properly and you shouldn’t have an issue.
