LOVE THESE! My son isn't a cookie lover, but he loves these, too. I substituted coconut for raisins and upped it to 1/2 cup. I also added an extra 1/4 cup of chocolate candies. I think the recipe benefits from sitting a bit before going onto the cookie sheets. It gives the oats a bit longer to hold the mixture together. YUM!

THESE ARE FANTASTIC! We have some food allergies/sensitivities in our house and I made these with a few substitutions Gluten Free Quick Oats, Almond Butter, omitted the raisins, and they were RIDICULOUSLY GOOD! This is NOT normally the case using GF substitutions. WOW! Just goes to show you that everything's better with a little Paula Deen!
