These cookies are a great way to use up leftover oats. I always have a bag of oats in my pantry, so it's nice to have a recipe that uses them up.

I'm not a big fan of raisins, so I omitted them from the recipe. The cookies were still delicious!

These cookies were a disaster! They were dry and crumbly, and they didn't have much flavor. I'm not sure what went wrong.

These cookies were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.
