Oatmeal Cranberry Chocolate Chip Cookies
I know that title is a mouthful, but these cookies are a mouthful worth having! This recipe is actually adapted from the Flat Belly Diet book – I made just a few changes to make them a little easier to make/improve the flavor. As such, these little nuggets of goodness are actually healthy. I know, right? Sure doesn’t look it!
Well, they are. They’re packed full of healthy fats (olive oil, walnuts), dark chocolate, and dried fruit. Two of them make a roughly 250 calorie snack, and they’re easy to grab and go, so they’ve become one of our favorites since we started making changes a few months ago.
And not only are they good for your waistline, the flavor on these cookies is amazing. There’s the sweetness of the cookie base, and that’s set off by the tanginess of the cranberries. Dark chocolate adds richness, and the oats round out the texture. Did I mention I love these?
