I love cookies yes I do! My tummy loves loves loves cookies so much too! Soon so will you! La La La La - Haha this is my Oatmeal Cookie Sugar-less High! Yes I said SUGAR-LESS Cookies! This is not false advertisement, it's legit! So if you love sweets as much as myself you will be right on this bad boy faster than flies on....well, ya know...never mind. Ok so let's get down to business! These cookies take some prep so please bring that creativity we love! I subbed out a lot of your everyday ingredients to create a much Happier, Healthier and Leaner Oatmeal Cookie. If you could imagine a cookie with a 6 pack, ripped arms, a great jaw line and an all around chiseled physique with an Australian accent (that's for the ladies - we love accents especially Australian ones!) this is the cookie! A cookie that the "Cookie Monster" himself would appreciate! Alright now that I got you amped up, let's get baking!

Grocery List
Shopping Tip: Find a local store that sells Oats by the pound (Self-Serve), I find that it is cheaper to buy whole than buying the small packs. "Thank you Magan!" - Your Wallet :)
4.5 C Rolled Oats
1 C Stevia - My Sweet tooth has a crush on you, I think its love!
1/2 C Almond Butter - Yum Yum Yum
1/2 C - Coconut Oil - People Read up on this stuff! It has over 50 uses! No Joke!
3 Large Egg Whites
1/2 C Walden Farms Pancake Syrup - If you cannot find this use sugar free syrup :)
2 Tsp Vanilla Extract
1 Tsp Baking Soda
1.5 Tsp Ground Cinnamon (Did you know that Cinnamon is a fat burner??? True Story!)
1 Tsp Salt (Sea salt is great! Scale back just a hair if you use it (: )
PAM - BFF's Forever!
Your Ingredients
Kitchen Tools
- Blender - We will use this with a lot of my recipes
- Measuring Cup
- Measuring Spoons - I stress measuring everything! It is so important in reaching your goals!
- Mixing Bowl - Large and Medium
- Fork or Whisk - Use what you are comfortable with - We need these to cream together our eggs, sugar and syrup

Your Tools!
PS for Christmas I would Love All Orange Kitchen Tools *hint *hint ;)
Directions:
- Preheat your Oven to 350 Degrees
- Measure 1.5 C Rolled Oats and Blend until they are powder form (Pulse on High is Great)
- Mix Almond Butter, Coconut oil (heat almond butter and coconut oil in the microwave for 30 seconds prior for easy use), Stevia, Egg Whites, Vanilla Extract and Pancake Syrup
- Mix until creamy and smooth (We do not like lumps)
- Mix Oat Flour, Salt, Baking Soda, Cinnamon
- Combine Creamed Mixture and Dry Mixture until Smoooooooth
- Add one Cup of Rolled Oats at a time to creamed mixture until all is combined and evenly mixed
 |
| The Hard Part is All Done! |
- Portion your cookies into approximately 1" x 1" balls or I like to use an Ice Cream Scooper for Perfect Portions! (Not like I ever get to use it for Ice Cream hahaha) - You should get 24 Cookies out of this batch.
- Place Pan on Middle Rack in our Pre-heated Oven (this is ensuring even baking! No Burnt Bottoms on our Cookies!)
- While our cookies are baking let's clean up! No time wasted in our kitchen! We are far too busy :)
- Once your cookies have a nice golden brown edge they are DONE! YAY!
- When removing them from the oven please be careful because they are HOT!
- Let cool for 10 minutes and ENJOY!
(I love mine with unsweetened Vanilla Almond Milk! Mmmm Mmmm Mmmm!)
