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)!

Tips:
- For a chewier cookie, use half all-purpose flour and half whole wheat flour.
- To make the cookies even healthier, use honey instead of granulated sugar.
- If you don't have any carrots on hand, you can substitute another grated vegetable, such as zucchini or sweet potato.
- Be sure to chop the carrots finely so that they distribute evenly throughout the cookies.
- Don't overmix the dough, as this will make the cookies tough.
- Bake the cookies until they are just set, as overbaking will make them dry.
- Let the cookies cool completely on a wire rack before enjoying.
