The taste was good but the texture was off. They were way to "puffy" for oatmeal cookies in my opinion. i like my oatmeal cookies flat. I am pretty sure the culprit is baking powder. I will try again with no baking powder and 1/2 the baking soda. I also make with just 1/2 cup of sugar and still tasted great. Not sure why American's want to add so much sugar to everything.

Has anyone tried this with only 3/4c sugar? Cup and a quarter seems like a lot.

Adding cardamom, some applesauce, letting them cool on the pan.

These cookies are perfect! I had been searching for a homemade version of the oatmeal raisin cookies at subway...finally found it! I increased the amount of butter to 3/4 cup and soft cooked @325 for 13 minutes...yum!!!
