 I try to be a heathy eater…Really I do, but it just doesn’t work out that way most of the time.

So when I saw these cookies I thought what better way to bring a little bit of health into my life. Hehe that sentence made me giggle! Okay, okay thats a far reach, but come on go with me okay. These cookies have oatmeal in them which is a great source of fiber and half of the flour used is White Whole Wheat Flour. What great healthy decisions we are making here. Another bonus for me was that they freeze really well. So my thinking was I would whip up a batch of these, freeze half for kids lunches and then half would be eaten. Well….that didn’t work out so well. My family and I ate them all in a few days. They were delicious. I’m  not a fan of anything with wheat for some reason. I’m not sure why, but I just don’t care for it that much. I think it’s a texture thing for me. Well with these babies you don’t even realize there is wheat flour in them.

I suggest you give them a try. Honestly go to the store and  buy a small thing of White Whole Wheat Flour by King Arthur and start baking them. Now I haven’t tried them without the wheat flour, but I bet they would be just as amazing with regular APF. If you try it out will you let me know please.
