Scottish Oatcake Cookies image

Looking for something reasonably good for you (unlike most cookies), sweet without being overwhelming, delicious but not filled with saturated fats? Try this! I started from a recipe for Scottish oatcakes, and the result is these mildy sweet whole-grain cookies made with fruits, nuts, and tree oils. Enjoy!

These cookies are a bit bland. I think they need more spices.
