Not bad... I had to make some changes based on what I have... so all white flour, and honey rather than the syrup. Also used one egg rather than the substitute. I did add some rolled oats and some craisins to this to get a more rounded breakfast cookie. That being said, these are super moist and HUGE! If you are making them for children, I highly suggest making closer to 10 or 12 rather than 6, as there is no way my 5 yo could eat a whole one of these. I couldn't eat a whole one... I shared mine with the 17 mo. I will cut back on the sweet next time... maybe using light corn syrup rather than honey. Thanks for the recipe!
