I thought this recipe was very good! It was exactly perfect! It had a few gitches here and there, but it was OK.

Perfect! Not sugary sweet at all, which was exactly what I was looking for. Used butter instead and semi-sweet chcolate chips. I'm making it again and I'm using walnuts, this time. The texture is perfect, and the tatse is wonderful. DO NOT MAKE IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR A GOOEY SWEET COOKIE.

These are very nice "tea" cookies because they need something like milk or tea to go with them. We added butterscotch and chocolate chips to make them a little more exciting. We also substituted royal jelly instead of honey. These would also be good with a lot of other mix-ins such as chocolate syrup, cranberries, etc. We used a cookie baller to get a consistent shape and baked for 14 minutes. The first dozen flew off of the cooling racks. We'll certainly make these again.

These cookies are not at all to my liking! No flavor. I did not like the texture. A waste of honey. I was expecting so much more. Once I bit into it I had to check the recipe to make sure I hadn't forgotten anything! I tried saving the rest of the batches with chocolate chips but to no avail. I don't know how this received 4 stars!

These were great cookies because they weren't too sweet. The texture is more like a bread. Okay by me. I adjusted the recipe by omitting the water, used butter instead of shortening, added 1/4 cup more flour, a little more honey and lots of walnuts. I spooned them out by the tablespoon and cooked for eleven minutes.

We wanted a cookie that had some natural ingredients.( oatmeal and honey ). After reading reviews to get "helpful hints", we left out the vanilla and baking soda. We used egg substitute, added half cup more flour, half cup of dates, half cup of hershey's special dark chocolate chips, and a bit more honey. Baked at 350 for 20 minutes or so. Next batch, we'll be using more dates,dried cranberries, walnuts, and possibly leaving out the chocolate chips. Thankyou!!

I liked the honey idea. However, I added cinnamon and a pinch of salt and some walnuts. I made them bigger and baked for 15 mins. Also, sprinkled a bit of nutmeg on top before baking.I also used a food processor to cream the sugars and shortening subbed 1/2 butter for shortening. Turned out okay. Not the best recipe and had to make some changes,because of lack of flavor.

These are simple and healthy to make, but I found them a little bit bland. I will try adding dates or rasins next time.

I omited the shortening and added butter in it's place. Then, left the vinilla out and used another cup of honey. 1/2 cup more flour. Poured some chocolate chips in there. Wonderful! Thanks

Good flavor but it's not an oatmeal cookie without raisins!!! After reading the other reviews I added 3/4 cup raisins to the wet ingredients and let it sit for 15 minutes before mixing in the dry ingredients. I also added 3/4 cup walnuts and substituted whole wheat flour for the all-purpose flour. After mixing all the ingredients I let the dough stand for about 10 minutes before baking and it helped with the too much moisture "problem." I cooked my cookies on unglazed stoneware like "pampered chef" and they were perfect!

After my first batch came out flat and somewhat too yellow, I added 1/2 cup flour and cranberries, plus about 1/4 cup brown sugar, and my mom's group said they were awesome - healthier tasting but fun too.

well I followed the indications of others and instead of shortening I used margarine and also added half cup more of flour. The batter smelled absolutely wonderful. I just pulled the first batch out of the oven and I only cooked them for 12 min on 325, they came out so cakelake and just slightly brown on the bottom :)... wonderful

The texture is terrific, but they aren't sweet enough. I expect drop cookies to be a bit sweeter.

My husband can have only honey as a sweetener. I add an extra half cup of flour and use whole wheat flour to get what looks a lot like macaroons, and he loves them!
