Oatmeal Healthy Cookies (Savoury)

Bake this savoury cookies on a cookie sheet lined with baking paper. I use an ice cream scoop (1/4 cup volume) so that they all come even. You will get 14 cookies. Make sure to flatten each one before baking. They are just yummy. They have no flour and no dairy. You can make the same type of cookies, but instead of adding savoury spices, I add apple sauce (unsweetened), cinnamon, nutmeg, vanilla extract and splenda to taste. I also switch the carrot for shredded apples. You can also add chopped almonds, nuts or hazelnuts if you like. They are very healthy, high in fibre and low in fat.
