Oatmeal Sandwiches ~ Great for Breakfast or a Snack

May 23, 2012 By Patty Limatola-Tanenbaum Leave a Comment

So I’m one of those patients that sit in the doctors waiting room, I look through the magazines and then of course I’m going to find me a great recipe that I just have to try.  So, I end up asking the receptionist to print me a copy of a page…of course these days I pull out my cell phone and just take a photo.  Well, this recipe is one of those kind of recipes.

My son was home ill from school today so I thought what a perfect day to bake him some healthy (yes healthy) cookies.  The recipe said that they are really meant to be eaten for breakfast but we think they can be eaten any time of the day.  I did modify the original recipe by omitting 1/2 cup of raisins and I added a few more things to the mix.  If you like raisins…then add em…we are not fans of raisins.

You basically grate your carrots

In a large bowl, add your oil, brown sugar, white sugar and egg. Mix until it’s well blended. Add your dry ingredients

spoon onto your prepared baking sheets

while it’s baking you make your filling

and you make little sandwiches out of them.  These cookies, wrapped and in the refrigerator, will last up to 3 days.

Yummy Oatmeal Sandwiches

Ingredients

    For the Cookie:
  • 1 cup All purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon Baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon Baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon Pumpkin pie spice
  • 1/4 teaspoon Salt
  • 1/2 cup Canola oil
  • 1/2 cup Brown Sugar, packed
  • 1/4 cup Sugar
  • 1 large Egg
  • 1 cup Old fashion oatmeal (not instant)
  • 1 cup Carrots, shredded
  • 1/4 cup Coconut, shredded
  • For the filling:
  • 6 ounces Cream cheese, room temperature
  • 2 tablespoons Maple syrup (or slightly more if desired)

Directions

    For the Cookies -
  1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
  2. Sift your flour, baking powder, baking soda and pumpkin pie spice together. Add your salt to this mix and set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, add your oil, brown sugar, white sugar and egg. Mix until it's well blended. Add your dry ingredients, oatmeal, carrots and coconut flakes. Mix just until it's all blended.
  4. Drop your dough, by tablespoons, onto the lined baking sheets about 2 inches apart. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges of the cookies begin to brown. Remove from your oven and let cool.
  5. For the Filling:
  6. In a small bowl, mix your cream cheese with your maple syrup.
  7. To Assemble:
  8. After your cookies have cooled down (if they are too hot the filling will melt so make sure to wait until the cookies are cooled), spread about 1 tablespoon of the filling on the flat side of the cookie, top with the remaining cookie and enjoy!
  9. According to my program - if you are not using the cream and only eating the cookie as an individual cookie (the batch makes 24 cookies or 12 sandwiches)...each cookie is the following:
  10. Calories - 62
  11. Total Fat - .46g
  12. Cholesterol - 8mg
  13. Sodium - 68 mg
  14. Total Carb - 13.32g
