Recipe of the Week Part 2: Chewy Diabetic Oatmeal Cookies!








Are you or someone you love a diabetic? Have you been looking for no sugar added cookies that do not have over 8g of fat? Well I have created the perfect solution for you! Today I decided to alter the original recipe of my favorite Oatmeal, Cranberry and Raisin cookies and to my surprise they were just as good and even better when it came to texture! They were chewy, moist and still tasted sweet. Check out the revised ingredients for even lower in calories, fat and sugar oatmeal cookies.


1/2 c plus 2 tbsp. unsweetened apple sauce

1/3 c plus 2 tbsp. Splenda Granuals

1 egg white

3/4 tsp. vanilla

3 tbsp. water

2 c oatmeal

2/3 c whole wheat flour

1/2 tsp baking soda

1/4 c dried cranberries and 1/4 c raisins (do not add for diabetic cookies)


Preheat oven to 350. Line baking sheet with wax or parchment paper. In a bowl, mix apple sauce and splenda. Add egg white, vanilla and water and mix thoroughly. Add remaining ingredients and mix until blended. Drop by spoonfuls onto wax paper. Bake for 10 min or until the bottoms are lightly brown. Makes 12 cookies.
