SUGAR FREE OATMEAL RAISIN SPICE COOKIES MIX IN A JAR



Sugar Free Oatmeal Raisin Spice Cookies Mix in a Jar image

My personal version of a recipe I found on www.budget101.com. I wanted to do more than just have a good sugar free cookie since the starchy carbs in the flour will also jack blood sugar. This version comes out fantastic! They are more cake like than a standard crisp cookie and stay wonderfully moist in a cookie jar. Not that they will actually last long enough to worry.

Time 1h

Yield 32 cookies, 16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 1/2 cups rolled oats
1 cup Splenda sugar substitute
3/4 cup flour
3/4 cup almond meal

2/3 cup butter, melted
4 egg whites
1/2 cup light vanilla yogurt (1 single serving 4oz cup)
1 teaspoon maple flavoring

Steps:

If mix is to be shipped ingredients may be measured into a clear plastic disposable pastry bag or decorative food safe cello bag to reduce shipping weight and then carefully tied closed.
  • Be sure to attach instruction card or label with the following directions: Combine above listed ingredients (from the list of "additionally to make cookies from mix") with 1 package of "Sugar Free Oatmeal Cookie Mix". Drop by cookie scoopfuls 1" - 2" apart onto parchment lined baking sheets. Bake 10 - 15 minutes at 350oF. Cookies do not spread much so will still be rather round and cake like. Allow to cool 5 minutes on baking sheets before carefully removing to cooling racks to completely cool. Store in a cool dry place.

Yield Makes about 40 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 11

3/4 cup vegetable shortening at room temperature
1 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
1 large egg, beaten lightly
1/4 cup unsulfured molasses
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
1/4 teaspoon salt
granulated sugar for dipping the balls of dough

  • Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
