You could substitute Whey Low or Splenda for the sugars and make these a sugar free cookie. Whey Low has brown sugar so does Splenda.

They were mealey and healthy tasting, which for me, defeats the whole purpose of having a cookie in the first place.

To lower the fat content even further, substitute the oil for apple sauce. It creates the same effect and you cant taste it. Its my favorite baking trick.

This recipes sounds amazing! I too am going to cut out a few things and try substituting them for low cal or sugar free products. I just wanted to inform the person that mentioned whey low, actually I just caught this write up about it:
"I read the list of ingredients. It says:
Sucrose
Fructose
Lactose
You know what that is? It's sugar. It's all sugar. Nothing but sugar. There is NOTHING low carb about this product. This is one of the most egregious misuses I have yet seen of the "net carbs" concept."

I was looking for a recipe that was different, but knew my husband loved chocolate chip cookies. Came across Bev's Chocolate Chip Cookies and decided to try them. The whole family loves them. Cutting back on the sweet is great and does not take away from the cookie. If anything, it lets the other flavors come out more and "share the applause."
I have tripled the recipe and the cookies still came out just great with no adjustments.
This is now my husband's favorite cookie and they are so easy to make. Adding the healthy aspect does not hurt either. I didn't tell my family they were healthier until after they loved them. Now there is no turning back.

I thought the liquid was too little for the flour sugar mixtures
and could not drop the dough with a spoon but had to make into
balls. otherwise they taste superb.

If you need to get your craving for cookies and sweets in but don't want all the fat included, try to substitute apple sauce in for butter. It has no fat, and way less calories. Personally I think it tastes better too.

I added walnuts, and some Benefiber for some added benefits. I also recommend cutting down the cooking time to about 9 or 10 minutes and pull the "Mrs. Field's" trick of not cooking the cookies all the way through so they stay excellently moist.

Please advise what the serving size is for this recipe? Is the calorie count and fat content etc. listed for one cookie?

...substituting 1/2 cup of the flour with a 1/2 cup of ground toasted almond (or hazelnuts!) for those of us without allergies to nuts, of course, makes this cookie splendiferous, adding flavor, protein, and nutrients. I also cut down on the sugar by a few tablespoons, but would not recommend substituting with Splenda. YUM!

i just made the cookies, the taste is great, just like the ones we buy but they were too flat and crunchy since they had no 'height' at all.
in milk they will be amazing i am sure! maybe i had to grind the oats less!

Expanding on the idea of using Splenda or a Soy base product... we substitute Brown Rice Syrup as a sweetener. Going even further... one can also use Karob Chips in place of chocolate chips and then you virtually have a totally healthy cookie you don't have to feel guilty about eating a dozen!!

Wow... I was looking for a great cookie recipe using wheat flour. I also made them with Splenda brown sugar. Fantastic!

I was worried about only using whole wheat flour (I usually substitute half and half), but these cookies were AMAZING. Defnitely unexpected and the recipe makes just the right amount. Highly recommended!!!

The posting says the serving size is 30 cookies. That can't be right. It also says it serves 30. There must by a typo. EatingWell.com or Yahoo must fix this immediately.

The recipe gives calories per serving but does not tell the serving size. For those of us counting calories it is important

These were very good tasting cookies, but some what dry if cooked as stated. I would reduce the times slightly or make the cookie larger

I love it, the Oatmeal and Wheat flour make it more wholesome, and I use coconut oil instead of canola for an extra hit of flavor and health. Thanks for submitting the recipe, I love it!

tastes even better when you double the cookies. Thank you for the recipe, yahoo food!

I'm vegan, so, I substituted the egg for a flax egg which also adds antioxidants. The dough was also a bit dry like a crust dough, but I added a little bot of soy milk and it became cookie dough consistency ans these tasted great, not like most whole grain cookies I've made, very good, slightly crumbly texture, but I like it. I'll definitely make these again.

I didn't tell my 12 yr old son they were "healthy" cookies and were made with wheat flour and oats. He couldn't tell the difference. He just said MMMMMM you make good cookies mom!
