I used substituted butter for shortning. They turned out just fine, and they were good, but just OK. Not as impressive to me as other reviewers thought.

Love these! They are the ideal "first cookie" for my little gal. The cakey texture is a plus for a toothless grin. I used butter, because I am more interested in a "natural" cookie low in sugar than reduced fat. Worked out just fine! I also used maple syrup, since those under 12 mos cannot have honey - also worked out great! Yummy for Mama, and yummy for babe.

This is a great cookie for kids' afternoon snack. I added a bit of extra brown sugar and all the kids enjoyed these. Everyone agreed that they had a mufin-like texture. They stayed soft the next day.

These cookies are very very good just as the recipe is written. I have made this recipe more times than I have made any other cookie recipe. Well liked by all in my experience.

I just made these cookies and I think they're pretty good. I increased the cinnamon (used a 'pumpkin pie' seasoning mix which was really nice) by a half tsp or so, and I also used two apples (grated) which worked quite well. I think I will try subbing some applesauce for the butter (I used butter not margarine) to reduce some of the fat. I'll probably use a jar or two of baby fruit as I have used it in cookies before with great results. I am always on the hunt for a nutritious cookie/treat I can feel good about giving my toddler, and I think these fit the bill!

I had a couple of spare apples, and liked this recipe. After reading some of the other reviews I added a bit of light brown sugar, and slightly more flour. I also used tablespoons rather than teaspoons to spoon out the mixture. The cookies came out very moist. The consistency was too cake like for my preference, but on the other hand my mum loved them. I agree that the oatmeal works very nicely with the apple.

Really really good, moist and tasty. I used apple sauce for the margine. The apples give it a nice sweetness for it not having any sugar in it.

I agree with the other reviews about adding brown sugar. I didn't add it this time but I definitely will next time - the honey doesn't add much sweetness. They are good as far as lower fat cookies go, but not as good as regular oatmeal cookies. The apples were a really nice addition :)

These were good! I will say, though, margarine is AWFUL for you! I substituted with butter (fat, yes -but at least it's truly natural). Next time I'd like to try the applesauce suggestion.

Good for a healthier cookie. Texture was a little odd. They were a little mushy. Maybe more flour? I added brown sugar as suggested.

I made a few changes and have had trouble keeping these in the house. Double the cinnamon (I love cinnamon), add 1/2 cup brown sugar as other people suggested, I used multi-grain flour, real maple syrup instead of honey because I ran out (add a bit more flour if you use syrup), and chop the apples really small so they distribute well. I used a Macintosh which kept its shape in the cookie and had a nice tart flavour. My mom made this recipe using a Gala apple and they disappeared in the baking process which made for a not pleasing result.

I followed the advice of some other reviews and added 1/2 cup brown sugar, 1 tsp cinnamon, 1/2 tsp nutmeg, shredded the apple, and used 1/4 cup honey and 1/4 cup agave syrup for the sweetner. The taste came out great, I loved that, but the cookies themselves came out flat as pancakes and so soft that they fell apart. I turned down the oven to 325F and it made them rise a little but they were still pretty flat. They were spongy and soft, so I would make them again as muffins.

I can't believe it but these were actually really good. I was looking for something to make my Uncle who just got out of the hospital from heart problems. These were low in cholesterol and sodium. And they taste great! I didn't make any changes because I wanted to see how the recipe turned out. The only thing I might do next time is add a little more cinnamon and MAYBE a handful of brown sugar to add a little more sweetness. But for how healthy they are, they were an awesome cookie!

Delicious! These cookies were very moist and kind of cake-like. They need a little more flavour though so next time I'll probably add more cinnamon. Not bad gor a healthy cookie!

very healthy and inobtrusively so; a pity only hubby an I did appreciate. My kids were not impressed. I'll keep this recipe anyway, because this cookie is basically good and can stay very moist for some days. Some may like it sweeter, but I think it's ok.
