HEALTHIER CARROT OATMEAL COOKIES
This makes a relatively healthy, cake-like cookie that is a bit like a mix between carrot cake and oatmeal cookies. I adjusted a few different recipes to use less sugar and more oats and carrots so that I don't feel too bad eating these for breakfast (which I can't resist)!

CARROT OATMEAL COOKIES
I found basis of this recipe in one of my MIL's magazines. Since I have my husband on a diet restricting meat, dairy, processed sugars, and white flour, I am trying to find creative ways to help satisfy his sweet tooth. These aren't very sweet but bake up nicely and "hit the spot". You could also add 1 cup of chocolate chips if you want it a little sweeter. What a wonderful way to eat your carrots!!!

Steps:
- Heat oven to 375°F. In large bowl, stir cookie ingredients until stiff dough forms.
- On ungreased cookie sheets, drop dough by teaspoonfuls 2 inches apart.
- Bake 9 to 10 minutes or until edges are light golden brown. Cool 2 minutes; remove from cookie sheets to cooling racks. Cool completely, about 30 minutes.
- In small bowl, mix all frosting ingredients, except nuts, with spoon until smooth. Spread frosting over cookies. Sprinkle with nuts. Store tightly covered in refrigerator.
Tips:
- Use Old-Fashioned Rolled Oats: For the best texture, use old-fashioned rolled oats, not instant or quick-cooking oats.
- Don't Overmix the Dough: Overmixing the dough will make the cookies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Chill the Dough: Chilling the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
- Bake the Cookies at the Right Temperature: Bake the cookies at 350°F (175°C) for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are just beginning to brown.
Conclusion:
Carrot oatmeal cookies are a healthy and delicious snack or treat. They are made with simple ingredients that you probably already have on hand. The cookies are soft and chewy, with a sweet and slightly spicy flavor. They are also packed with nutrients, including fiber, vitamins, and minerals. Next time you are looking for a healthy snack or treat, give these carrot oatmeal cookies a try. You won't be disappointed!
