GUILT FREE TREAT.............

MMMmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!!!!!!!!!!!!
You said you wanted fresh baked oatmeal cookies but you did not ask for that feeling of guilt when eating one to many.........................
I love these cookies because they are BUTTER FREE and EGG FREE and still very YUMMY!!
What you will need:
1. whole wheat flour
2. unbleached white flour
3. baking powder
4. cinnamon
5. honey (preferably local)
6. brown sugar
7. rolled oats
8. white and red raisins
9. non-fat Greek yogurt
10. semi-sweet dark chocolate
11. canola oil
In a Mixing bowl mix dry ingredients first, starting with 3/4 cup whole wheat flour and 1/4 cup of unbleached white flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder and 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon. Whisk 3/4 cups of brown sugar, 2/3 cups of rolled oats, stir in 1/2 cup of the raisins, and 1/4 cup of chocolate.
In a separate bowl beat 1 cup of the yogurt with 1/8 cup of canola oil and 2 tablespoons of LOCAL honey.
Mix dry and wet ingredients and roll into a ball, and flatten. Place on a baking sheet into your pre-heated oven at 350 degrees for 17-20 minutes.
Let your cookies cool and when your husband walks in the room along with his friends and they grab a cookie and rave about how YUMMY they are, you made an amazing guilt free treat.
