Oatmeal Raisin Cookies
A Semi-Healthy Snack or Breakfast With A Glass of Non-Dairy Milk
We make oatmeal raisin cookies as a semi-healthy treat. If we really were bent on eating something healthy, we'd just cook the oatmeal with the raisins.
But these oatmeal raisin cookies are so good, we eat them for breakfast without a twinge of guilt!
Besides being delicious, dairy-free, and almost healthy, oatmeal raisin cookies are quick and easy to make - and chances are good you've got all the ingredients.
Enjoy with hot apple cider as a winter treat, or a glass of non-dairy milk as a healthy snack (or breakfast).
