I have been making this recipe for years and my family and friends all love these cookies. My recipe calls for flattening the cookies with a fork dipped in cold water before baking. I think you'll find that it really makes a difference! (These were originally called Neighbourhood Oatmeal Cookies.)

These cookies are insanely fabulous. I was really dubious of an eggless recipe at first. But all the awesome reviews prompted me to give it a try. And boy am I glad I did. I halved the recipe, and it still turned out perfectly crispy and airy, despite being an oatmeal cookie. While baking, they smell fantastic. But be sure to let the cookies sit for 2 minutes after taking them out of the oven though! Or else they'll crumble all over you. Truth be told though, not all the dough made it into the oven, lots were consumed in a big bowl of chocolate cookie dough ice cream!

I have made this recipe countless times. Each time I make it I am astounded at what a good cookie this makes. They are light, crunchy and perfectly shaped. I highly recommend this one! I have substituted margarine for butter. I use one cup of turbinado (evaporated cane juice) sugar instead of white and brown sugar. The cookie should be slightly flattened before baked and need a bit longer to cook than the traditional cookie. This is, by far, the BEST cookie recipe I've ever tasted.

I followed the instructions exactly...twice. Both times the cookies spread out really thin, the edges burnt and the middles were still raw. The burnt edges stuck to the sheets and the middles crumbled. I have four cooling racks of oatmeal, chocolate crumble... What did I do wrong?

Excellent cookies, very easy to make, and everybody loved them! They baked perfectly for me at 350 for 12 minutes, but are very forgiving - I got busy with my daughter and wasn't able to take the last batch out until nearly 16 minutes, but they were just fine, only a bit crunchier than the others. I especially like that these are egg free - my daughter was able to help me make them without me worrying about the raw dough, plus of course they are great for those with allergies. These will definitely become a regular in our house. Thank you!

Try using dried cranberries and white chocolate chips for a nice change of pace. Also, I omitted the white sugar completely, used 3/4 cup of brown sugar, 1/2 cup of whole wheat flour, plus 1 cup of white flour. Makes a terrific cookie!

These were awesome. Use butter! To evenly bake, I used parchment paper, decreased heat to 325, flattened them a bit before baking, and kept an eye on them after the 8 minute mark. Everyone loved them. As stated before, no one could tell the difference w/o eggs. The batter itself is yummy and I was able to let my kids lick the beaters since there are no eggs. Crisp and chewy. Will definitely make these again!

This is an AWESOME recipe. I hardly had them out of the oven, and the kids were all over them. My husband who is not wild about oatmeal cookies loved them. This is a keeper for sure. Thanks for the great recipe!!! :-)

This cookie was awesome. When sampling the dough it seemed as though it was not sweet enough...but don't add more sugar. Once the cookies baked they were perfect and sweet. I did add 1/4 tsp of nutmeg and 1/3 tsp of cinnamon. It added the perfect amount of spice. When you are baking the cookies don't over bake them. The centers will look doughy and the very edges will look lighly brown (this took about 10 minutes). Take them out...they are done. WAIT 2-4 minutes to take off of the tray (this allows the centers to continue cooking slightly). I found they did not crumble if you turned them upside down on the cooling rack. Hope you find these tips helpful.
