Make IBS safe Oatmeal Cookies

Wanting something "Safe" to eat to treat your sweet-tooth? A Recipe in the IBS SAFE food Collection!

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • honey
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 3/4 cup applesauce
  • 2 cups rolled oats
  • 1 cup white flour
  • 1tsp baking soda
  • Options are cinnamon or cocoa powder for chocolate cookies!
  1. Step 1

    Preheat oven to 350 F. For cookies your going to want to grease the pan instead of use wax paper or cookie sheets, they tend to just cause a sticking mess!

  2. Step 2

    In a large bowl stir together dry ingredients-sugar/flour/baking soda/oats/cocoa powder if decided.Using cocoa powder is fine since cocoa powder itself has no dairy for those of you that have IBS or just lactose intolerant.

  3. Step 3

    Stir in wet ingredients-honey/applesauce. stir together and judging by moistness of mix you can add another 1/4 or so of applesauce to make nice and wet/sticky.( a little cocoa powder goes a long way so add 1 tbsp and stir around and then add desired amount.)

  4. Step 4

    Take a tablespoon and drop cookies about 1 1/2 inches apart. Place in oven and bake for about 15 minutes or until golden brown and slightly firm. Let sit for 20 to 30 minutes. I found that sometimes the harder they come out the better and they satisfy more since they take longer to eat! Enjoy.
