Oatmeal Walnut Cookie

What does oatmeal make you think of? For me, oatmeal is very comforting. I have eaten steel cut oats for breakfast for the past 15 years and it really gives me a sense of calm every morning. Adding oatmeal to a cookie is a great way to bulk it up without adding more flour, butter or sugar. Plus, oatmeal is high in fiber so you can eat a cookie and also increase your daily fiber intake. Winning, right? If you want to make these Oatmeal Walnut cookies a bit more decadent, simply add in chocolate or butterscotch chips. You can place some extra walnuts on top of each cookie to have them look a bit “nuttier” and be photo ready. I hope you enjoy our oatmeal walnut cookie recipe. Two ingredients that will really elevate these cookies are Bob’s Red Mill Organic Oats and Nielsen-Massey Pure Vanilla Bean Paste Leave me a comment below and tell me, what is your favorite comforting cookie and why.
