Eggless Oatmeal Cookies

Ingredients

• 2 cups flour
• 2 cups oatmeal (uncooked)
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
• 2 teaspoons ground flax seeds (optional)
• 1 2/3 cups brown sugar
• 1/2 cup oil
• 1 cup cooked mashed sweet potato

Directions

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 350 F.

2. 2

   Mix the first dry five ingredients (with flaxseed, if using).

3. 3

   Mix the remaining three ingredients.

4. 4

   Combine the wet and dry ingredients, stir until mixed.

5. 5

   Drop onto a well greased cookie sheet and flatten slightly (they don't spread out that much since they don't have butter or margarine) or spread into a well greased jelly roll pan.

6. 6

   Bake for 16 minutes for cookies, around 30 for cookie bars (I like them nice and crunchy, bake for less time if you like them soft).
