Great Grandma Johnson's Oatmeal Cookies image

My Dad's Mom, Grandma Johnson, was the best cook and baker. Everything she made was delicious. A lot of what I learned about cooking and baking came from Grandma Johnson through my mother (Grandma taught my Mom how to cook).

I've made these cookies gluten-free by using gluten-free flour and oats. They turned out just as delicious as the regular version.

These cookies are a great way to use up leftover oats. I always have a bag of oats in my pantry, so I can make these cookies whenever I want.

These oatmeal cookies are the best! They're soft and chewy, with a perfect balance of sweetness and spice. I love that they're made with whole wheat flour and oats, which makes them a bit healthier than traditional oatmeal cookies.
