Recipe: Oatmeal cookies with no refined sugar

[ATD_Mom]

I made these yesterday, and - as with every other time I make them to share - my friend requested the recipe.  I came here to get it, from an old thread.  Found the thread locked.  So I thought I'd share it again for anyone who hasn't tried it yet.

(Leave out the chocolate chips for still yummy but completely sugar-free cookies.)

Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Flaxseed Meal Cookies

Preheat oven to 350 F

Mix together in a small bowl:

1 cup whole wheat flour (I use spelt flour, which requires a bit more than 1 cup)
1/2 tsp baking soda
1 tsp cinnamon
1/4 cup flaxseed meal
1/4 tsp salt

Cream together in mixer:

6 Tbsp. butter, softened
1/2 C maple syrup or honey/maple syrup combo

Add to creamed mixture, beating until well blended:

1 egg
3/4 t vanilla

Add dry stuff to wet stuff, mixing only until combined.

Then stir in:

1 1/2 c thick-cut oatmeal
1/2 c chocolate chips

Form into hockey pucks, bake until they're almost set. Maybe 10-12 minutes.
