Healthy Peanut Butter Oatmeal Cookies

May 9, 2018 Amanda Plott

A long, long time ago, when I was new to this wide world of cooking and sharing my recipes... I made these Healthy Peanut Butter Oatmeal Cookies for National Oatmeal Cookie Day. ...And boy-oh-boy am I ever glad that I did. This recipe right here has been on the top 10 most viewed recipes here for almost the entire existence of The Skinny Fork. There's a reason for that too. These cookies are AMAZING.

They are gluten-free, low-carb, vegetarian, vegan, and naturally GUILT FREE. It's a bonus too that they're so quick and easy to make. You will wonder from this point on how you ever lived without them.

Healthy cookies. Sounds like an oxymoron, right?…

Healthified Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Banana Bread

I'm not entirely sure why, but I just haven't been able to focus well lately. Everything has turned out really tasty, but my photography skills have just not been up to par. That means that I have to work twice as hard and it all becomes some vicious circle. Needless to say, this is now the third attempt at a decent and cohesive recipe post this week.

To say that I've exhausted myself, would be an understatement.

Even with all of that being said, I finally had success. Huge success. And all with this amazing Healthified Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Banana Bread! Look, fall is my favorite time of year, and I'll be the first to admit that I am one of those. I'm an outright pumpkin fanatic. I live for pumpkin spice anything...

Skinny 'Soft Batch' Chocolate Chip Cookies

December 24, 2015 Amanda Plott

So, every year my mom and I get together before Christmas to spend a day baking up some of our most favorite cookies. This year a request was put in, by another health-nut in the family, for some extra special chocolate chip cookies - soft and full of dark chocolate goodness; chunks and chips alike. Of course, I was more than happy to oblige!

These cookies are soft, fluffy, and full of the good stuff that I know my father-in-law loves. To make them even more special, I topped a few with festive sprinkles, others with dark chocolate candies, and some were just left perfectly plain...

Healthified Chocolate Chip Pudding Cookies

December 5, 2014 Amanda Plott

The first time I made these chocolate chip pudding cookies, I was in love. I'm not sure what it is about adding in a packet of vanilla pudding mix to the dough that completely transforms the texture and flavor of the cookie into perfection. But, it does. And it's brilliant.

These cookies turn out sweet, but not too sweet... with a crunchy edge and an ooey-gooey warm and soft center. Just the way that a chocolate chip cookie is supposed to be!

Seriously, my dad will fight you over his belief that a proper chocolate chip cookie is suppose to have a soft and chewy center. Never hard and/or crunchy...

Skinny Edible Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough (Whole Wheat)

August 15, 2014 Amanda Plott

You know when you're making some cookies and you just can't help but eat a spoonful or two of the dough? ... Even though you're not supposed to because of the raw egg or other 'icky' stuff that could be in there? It's one of those shameful moments that we all take part in at one time or another.

Yeah, well. Problem solved!

That's right. This cookie dough is meant for eating. Not for baking.

Please, do not attempt to bake this cookie dough...
