Soft Oatmeal Raisin Cookies No Butter
It's best to have all ingredients at room temperature and be sure to aerate your flour before measuring. I make these with cold pressed avocado oil. Works great with chocolate chips too. - Jenny Jones

Easy, quick and yummy…..I made 1 dozen with this recipe, perfect for me and my husband, until my “adult kids “ tasted them! What can I say Jen, from dinner to desserts, your recipes are delicious! Making them for years and will continue for many more. I DO MISS YOUR VIDEOS, LOVE THEM!
I would like to substitute with whole wheat flour. Do liquids need to be increased?
I made these cookies and my husband went crazy for them. I added the walnuts and chocolate chips, its a great tasting and fairly healthy recipe! It is definitely going in the recipe collection! Thank you for posting, lots of love from Toronto, Canada!
MariposaYour presentation is fantastic your videos are self-explanatory and excellent please keep them coming
Can you use quick oats for this too?
I’m sure you can. Measure the quick oats and hold back adding your own sugar if your oats are already sweetened. I have some maple and brown sugar packets I am going to make the cookies out of.
So glad I read your note at the beginning of the recipe!
My granddaughter is allergic to all milk proteins except for Coconut milk.
So I am always looking for subs for butter and margarine. I will try avocado oil next time. Does this work in chocolate cakes as well?
thanks
You can use apple sauce instead butter or oil with cake mixes. Ratio is 1:1 (use the same amount of apple sauce as you would oil or butter.)
