I made the pumpkin/applesauce variation in a 9x9 pan. I'm always seeking yummy recipes with minimal amounts of healthier sweeteners, so I wanted to love this simple, easy, quick recipe. The prep time was far less than 10 minutes for me! It has great potential, but to my taste, something was missing. Diced apples might be a nice addition, and I will probably try the banana version sometime and see if I like that better. Maybe something as simple as a pinch of salt would add the extra dimension I'm looking for...

I'm sorry, but these really just didn't work for me. They didn't taste like anything and I was so suprised because there was so much flavor put in them, yet none if it came out in the finished product

I love this recipe!!!! I used the molasses, & did not find the recipe at all overwhelming. I loved it! Anyways, I did bar cookies in a 8 in by 11.5 inch tray @ 350 for 20 minutes, & that turned out perfect for me... No crumbling, but not hard either. This is not a good cookie for those who have like 50 grams of non-natural sugar a day, but for me, this sweetness was the perfect amount. The only misgiving I had about this recipe was that these taste pretty bad after about 2 days in the fridge, so I'd reccomend baking up only the amount you can eat in 2 days. Anyways, thank you martini!

Oooh yummy! Thanks for posting this: another great dessert that I can feel good about making and eating! These are really easy to make (I did them with my five year old sister this morning) and taste great. I made the banana version, adding 1/2 cup of raisin to the cookie dough, and I'll probably fiddle around with the ingredients now that I have this basic recipe to go from. Dried cherries, chopped walnuts, different spices, almond extract, coconut, even chocolate chips...mmmmmm imagine the possibilities! I used my tablespoon cookie dough scoop and got about 3 dozen chewy, flavorful little cookies out of a single batch. There wasn't a whole lot of "banana" taste, but they were delicious anyway...maybe I'll reduce the cinnamon next time so I can taste the banana more. I used half honey and half molasses to avoid a really strong molasses flavor, and I bet maple syrup will be good too. My brothers were happy to know that I found another good dessert WITHOUT sugar and WITH whole grains, since it means they can eat more cookies!
