Wonderful recipe!! I didn't change a thing! My husband is allergic to eggs, so this is perfect. I can finally make him is favorite cookies without worrying about the egg content. This recipe offers so many opportunities. I am going to try them with with different ingredients such as dried blueberries, raisins , and even gumdrops!

Wow! We picked up all the ingredients for cookies but forgot the eggs. Found this recipe online. It IS a winner!! I cooked these for 10 min and added 2 more b/c our cookie sheet is the ventilated kind that prevents burning so we always add 2 or so minutes to cookie recipes. I did let them cool right on the sheet for 6 min to prevent them from falling apart. Some of the larger ones had to cool on wire rack for an addtl 5 minutes. They were crispy on the edges and soft in the middle. Perfect!! Thanks!

These are amazing. I called mom today and asked if I could make cookies with no eggs. She replied back your grandma says no. So my two sons and husband disappointed they where getting no cookies turned me to the web.
They love these cookies more then my normal recipes. I did add a couple things only because I was a bit short of brown sugar so I replaced about a quarter cup powdered sugar and a couple squirts of maple syrup.
They are Delicious!
Thank you again as it is a cold snowy day and I did not want to go back to the store.
You made one happy family!

This recipe really saved me when I got everything ready to make cookies only to find I had used all my eggs for brunch. But there are a couple of things I'd pay close attention to. First, make sure you start with softened butter (set some out earlier in the day) and beat it with a mixer before you put in your sugars. The other tip I have is to freeze the dough. Otherwise, you may have a problem with spreading out (especially if you don't use a lot of dough in each cookie). I used part of the dough and had that problem. Then I froze the rest after rolling it up in wax paper. I rolled it into a tube about the size of a silver dollar (or a tube of cookie dough - imagine that!) wrapped it in wax paper. Once frozen, I sliced off cookies somewhere between 3/4 and 1 inch thick. This will probably make fewer, larger cookies than the normal recipe yield. I would also be careful on the time, keeping on the low side of 10 minutes. When I tried it this way, they came out much better.
I also omitted the raisins and added a little cinnamon. Seems like there's a lot of variations you could do on this recipe. Thanks for posting it.

Great simple recipe! I dressed it up a bit and made a few minor substitutions and swapped the enriched white flour for organic whole wheat flour, the chocolate chips for white chocolate chips, added 1cup of whole cashews and lastly about 2 teaspoons of cinnimon because i was out of vanilla extract and wow--they are AMAZING! I'd never even know that there weren't eggs in them!

If you are still on this site, thanks for posting this! They turned out amazing! Even though I forgot to dissolve the baking soda in water before I added it oops. They are crispy on the edges and chewy in the middle. They have GREAT flavor. I used less butter because I didn't have that much. I didn't have chocolate chips or raisins but I will definitely try this again with that added. I let them sit on the cookie sheet a minute and that kept them from coming apart. I am totally broke and out of a lot of stuff. This was perfect :)

I made these today. Doubling the recipe I made a few changes. Instead of butter I used shortening I reduced the shortening to 1 1/2 c. instead of 2 cups. Then instead of raisins, I used dried cranberries. These will be a go to favorite ... I was really pleased...

I wanted to make cookies for my family but like many here, I was out of eggs so I thought I would give this recipe a try. I made the recipe exactly as written. I compared this recipe to the recipe on the oatmeal box and noticed the oatmeal box recipe uses only a 1/2 cup of butter. Next time I might try that just to lower the fat a bit.
I would not skip the salt in this recipe because it needs it as a counterpoint to the sweetness.
To keep the cookies from spreading too much I refrigerated the dough before using it. It also helps to make sure the cookie sheets are cool before putting the next batch on them.
When I first tried to pick up a cookie, it fell apart. I left the rest of the cookies on the sheets until they were totally cool and then they didn't fall apart.
After I posted a link to this recipe on my facebook page, a friend commented that one may substitute 2 tablespoons of real mayonnaise for each needed egg. It is not a good substitution for those with allergies but might work if you are just out of eggs. I haven't tried it yet, though.
Thank you, Tonkcats, for sharing your recipe.
I am updating my review after my husband and sons tried the cookies to say that they loved them.

This is my first review. I felt these 'no egg' chewy oatmeal chocolate chip cookies deserved it:)and so did the poster Tonkcats. I followed the recipe as much as I could with what I had on hand and of course I didn't have eggs which is why I was lucky enough to find this recipe!!
I used 3/4 cups butter (trying to watch the fat intake) and only had a bittersweet 71% coco chocolate bar on hand (I suggest trying that instead of regular chips sometime)...I make my own vanilla so I added a BIG splash of it (it's not as potent as store bought). No raisins either.
These babies were fluffy and chewy and oh so satisfying. Hubby and I couldn't wait so we had them fresh out of the oven! I can only imagine how delish they will be tomorrow. Thanks you for a great post! This is a keeper and a healthier alternative to regular cookies in my opinion.

Me and my husband were desperate for a cookie fix but didn't have any eggs so I quickly made these and they turned out great! Will definately make them again.

My children were wanting some cookies last night but I had no eggs. I wasn't sure if you could even make cookies without eggs but decided to google it. I found this recipe and decided to try it since I had everything on hand. I have to tell you that these are delicious! None of us thought they were too sweet (although I used just a smidge less white sugar and we make our own brown sugar-google it, it's easy) and I enjoyed the buttery taste. They were more on the flat side but that didn't affect the taste at all!! I cooked them for 9 minutes and let them cool for about 5 and then removed them to a wire rack. Thank you so much for this recipe!! I might just make this our stand-by cookie recipe from now on!

My nephew wanted cookies and we had no eggs or white sugar. These are the best cookies I have ever had. Because we had no white sugar he used only brown. Love them. Thank you for posting!

I had to adjust the time on these by an additional 3 minutes beyond the 12 recommended. The kids liked them just fine, but they're not that pretty to look at since they spread out really thin in our cookie sheet. I was glad to find a recipe without eggs, but will be stocking up eggs in the future or skipping our baking project.

My son says that these are the best cookies I've ever made. For some reason, even though they have a lot of sugar, they don't taste that sweet to me. Great recipe, thank you!
I made these with 1 cup whole spelt flour and a half cup of ground almonds instead of wheat flour.

This is an awesome egg-less cookie recipe. I changed the serving units for 10 and used a tablespoon measure to lay out the cookies. It tasted real nice and the smell was even better. But I think it has too much butter to flour ratio. I may use a third more of the flour for the given butter. Nothing else I would do any different:-) Its that good!!@@!!

These were very good. I cooked them in my 4 year old oven for seven minutes and they were perfect. I did not add the raisins, but they would have been a nice addition. I am making them again tonight!

I was hungry and needed a recipe that didn't use eggs, since I didn't have any. Found this one, and was very happy! Awesome cookies, very moist and chewy! I can't stop eating them
