They are the perfect accompaniment to a mid-morning or late afternoon cup of green tea. But not all cookies are created equal, of course, and most are packed with more sugar and unhealthy fats than a donut!<\/p>\n<p>This cookie recipe, on the other hand, is a healthy one, but it doesn&#8217;t sacrifice taste. Often we associate healthy with unappetizing, pasty, dry, rabbit food, but the recipes I develop in my joyous kitchen are always packed with an equal heaping of both flavour and nutrition.<\/p>\n<p>As well, my recipe will make you feel fabulous and here&#8217;s why:<\/p>\n<p>1. It&#8217;s packed with<a href=\"http:\/\/www.thatsfit.ca\/search\/?q=fibre\"> fibre<\/a> from whole wheat flour and ground <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thatsfit.ca\/search\/?q=flaxseeds\">flaxseeds<\/a>.<br \/>2. It has oats to balance your <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thatsfit.ca\/search\/?q=blood%20sugar\">blood sugar<\/a> and help lower bad cholesterol.<br \/>3. One cookie is a perfect afternoon snack that will beat any <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thatsfit.ca\/search\/?q=cravings\">cravings<\/a>.<br \/>4. Each one is dense, meaty and delicious and thus ultimately satisfying.<br \/>5. They are great for kids, people on the run and easy enough to make. I suggest baking a batch on the weekend and then freezing them. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Recipe after the jump<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.thatsfit.ca\/2010\/02\/21\/ground-flaxseed-oatmeal-raisin-cookies\/\" rel=\"bookmark\">Continue reading <em>Ground Flaxseed Oatmeal Raisin Cookies <\/em><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;\">\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.thatsfit.ca\/2010\/02\/21\/ground-flaxseed-oatmeal-raisin-cookies\/\" rel=\"bookmark\" title=\"Permanent link to this entry\">Permalink<\/a> | <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thatsfit.ca\/forward\/19362308\/\" title=\"Send this entry to a friend via email\">Email this<\/a> | <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thatsfit.ca\/2010\/02\/21\/ground-flaxseed-oatmeal-raisin-cookies\/#comments\" title=\"View reader comments on this entry\">Comments<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Filed under: Healthy Eating, Holistic Recipe Cookies are one of my all-time favourite snacks.
