I doubled the recipe and used crystalized ginger. Also used alot more zest and like others it was still a little to thin for cookies so I adjusted oatmeal just a little..........Also put pecans in oven for 5 minutes, something I always do, brings out the flavor....You will love these

I think this recipe was great. I added 3 tablespoons of lemon juice and an extra 1/3 cup of flour, then I refrigerated the cookie dough for a half hour and the cookies did not spread out. I also added some extra chopped ginger to give the cookies some extra texture and flavor. It is a very nice change for an oatmeal cookie.

I thought these words would never pass my lips, but this recipe has too much butter. Using all butter in this cookie causes excessive spreading - even when the dough is refrigerated. There's only one way to remedy this and that is to substitute 1/2 the butter with shortening. Also, doubled the recipe and it yielded 43 3" cookies.

As it stands, this recipe gets 5 stars for flavor, 2 stars for texture. I will definitely make this again using the substitution. Maybe then I will give it a full 5 stars.

Quick, easy and delicious oatmeal cookies! I am sure I will be making these regularly. The only change I would make is add more ginger and lemon since I love both these flavors. Even my husband who is a picky eater liked these cookies. This is a keeper. Thank you Melissa!

Delicious cookies. Based on other reviewers, I used 1 1/2 Tbs grated ginger and 1 1/2 Tbs grated lemon zest and otherwise followed the recipe as is. Pronounced ginger flavor with lemon as the second note. Mine did not run together and it made 32 cookies. Excellent!

Okay, I can't bake but somehow I managed not to mess these up. They are WONDERFUL. My favorite cookie flavors, lemon, ginger, oatmeal. I used more lemon and ginger than the recipe calls for but not a lot. The recipe says it makes 15 cookies. These are huge and mine ran together. Next time, I'll make 24 out of this batch. Delicious!!!!
