These cookies are wonderful! I always try to follow a recipe exactly the first time I make it, but I did have to make a few substitutions for ingredients I had in my pantry. I used all natural applesauce instead of the carrots, dried cranberries instead of raisins, and Special K protein plus cereal instead of bran flakes. The recipe was so easy to make and my family really enjoyed them. My children never missed the extra sugar you find in most cookies. I will definitely make these again.

These cookies are outstanding! I added 1/4 cup of flour and 1/4 cup of cake flour, I did need to add a couple tablespoons of extra flour to make a stiffer dough, cookies took only 10 mins to bake in my oven. We love the fact they're healthy and not full of sugar and fat. :-

I added 1/4 cup ground flax seed, 1/4 cup wheat bran, 1/3 cup dates. I replaced the 3 tablespoons of white sugar with 1 tablespoon honey. Used pear puree in place of the carrot. I also made my cookies with a smaller scoop. I really like the flexibility of this recipe and will be using it in the feature for many other combinations. I love the fact that sugar isn't the main ingredient in these as it is in many of the other breakfast cookie recipes I looked at elsewhere.

Very yummy and a perfect solution to a busy morning. It ticks all the boxes. I added finely grated carrots along with one tablespoon of flax seed meal for added nutrition and texture. A family favorite.

I was really hoping for more flavor from this cookie. I thought it very bland in flavor. I might try again with orange zest hopefully it will bring it a little to life. Yet to find healthy breakfast cookie that is full of flavor!

oh my love it love it love! Just got the recipe today and had most of the ingredients. I used applesauce instead of the oil but i did add alittle melted butter. I didnt use the carrots. Used half of the sugar because the dried cherries that i put in it added more than enough sweetness. Instead of walnuts, which would have been great but I didnt have any, I used slivered almonds and toasted them instead. This recipe is great because I have already figured out how I can make this cookie about ten different ways. I dont really enjoy baking, cooking is more my thing, but this recipe I highly recommend.

A bit too much nutmeg, used 1 c of apple sauce, no oil or butter and 1 c of oats, no bran. REALLY soft and yummy.

LOVE them! I made a few substitutions mostly so my husband would eat them or because I didn't have all the ingredients. I did not use the butter or the granulated sugar--just the brown one (3tbsp. Instead of raisins I used a mix of craisins and dried apricots. Also I didn't have any bran cereal so I used a Weetabix wheat biscuit! I crumbled it in the mix and it worked out great. I toasted the walnuts in the oven as it was pre-heating. my favorite healthy breakfast so far!
