HEALTHY WHITE CHOCOLATE OATMEAL RAISIN COOKIES
JUMP TO RECIPE
If you want a deliciously soft and chewy cookie, you came to the right place! These cookies are so simple to make and don’t require too many ingredients. They are gluten and dairy free and can easily be made vegan with just one swap (see note section in recipe box).
As a kid, oatmeal raisin cookies were my favorite, but growing up I realized the traditional store bought oatmeal cookies are often not as healthy as I thought they would be. I came up with this healthier version so that I would not feel guilty indulging on more than one. Made with ingredients such as coconut sugar, pasture raised eggs, and peanut butter with nothing but peanuts with salt is how I get these to be considered “healthier” and of course guilt free. Give them a try and let me know what you think!
