Nothing flashy, just a nice, comfortable, milk and cookies experience, with a bit of nutrition slipped in. These are wonderful just out of the oven, and also freeze well. Based on the recipe for Kumara Cookies, from Kaipara Kumara, http://www.kumara.co.nz.

LOW-FAT, HIGH FIBER OATMEAL RAISIN COOKIES

Low-Fat, High Fiber Oatmeal Raisin Cookies image

I adapted Quaker Oatmeal's "Vanishing Oatmeal Raisen Cookies" recipe to lower the fat and increase the fiber (and my husband didn't even notice!) For less sugar and even lower fat, I sometimes substitute Splenda for the granulated sugar and EnerG egg substitue for the eggs.
