HEALTHY OATMEAL RAISIN COOKIES (A.K.A. MEAG'S PERFECT COOKIE)



Healthy Oatmeal Raisin Cookies (A.k.a. Meag's Perfect Cookie) image

I created this recipe with my daughter after a conversation with my sister, Meagan, about her idea of a perfect oatmeal cookie. This is a cookie you can feel good about giving your kids. They are very moist and fluffy and taste even better the days after being baked. These are very adaptable so feel free to substitute chocolate chips and a bit of lemon zest for the raisins or add some cranberries and sliced almonds for some added fun!
