These cookies were good. I did not want to put water in the cookies, so I left it out. After the first batch they were a little dry. I added some milk, and that helped. I would probably add more peanut butter and less oats. The oats overpower the peanut butter. The chocolate icing helped make the cookies very tasty. I will make again with the above changes.

This recipe was ok. I do love breakfast recipes with apples, andI've made several others that I prefer. For those of you that have not made this recipe, let me offer a few suggestions. The apples do taste great, but I expected them to end up more like pie filling. They were spiced apples on top of french toast. The caramel sauce is delicious, but it is just that, caramel sauce. If you do not want a caramel sauce on your french toast, syrup works just as well. The directions for making the sauce are vague. Cook on medium until it starts to boil, then put on medium-low and let simmer until it thickens. Also, check the bottom of your french toast after about 45 minutes. I cooked mine almost an hour and the bottom did not stick to the pan, but it was overcooked. I did like the taste of the french toast without the apples, but the combination of the apples, toast and caramel sauce was a little much for our family. It may work well for others though.

Wow! (and I bake A LOT!). I have not made gingerbread cookies since I was a child and was hoping for a recipe that was similar to those I had growing up. This is not it. I don't know if it is because there is too much molasses in it or not. I saw that some reviewers substituted golden syrup. I'm sure that helps. The initial taste is ok, but the aftertaste is very unpleasant. I wish I had a better review.
