Just finished baking these, they’re so good! The only extra thing I added was a little cardamom. Highly recommend this recipe!

[@HowToCookSmarter]

I love adding cardamom in my baking too!💚

[@user-lv4ov5rp6d]

How much cardamom?

[@kit_kat_hi]

@@user-lv4ov5rp6d ah sorry I didn’t actually measure it! I wouldn’t do more than like a teaspoon though, cause it can be quite strong + drying to the cookie

You are becoming my go to guy for most all things baked. I have been baking since I was a child, and I'm tired of all the complicated recipes I've used throughout the years. This is like a breath of fresh air! I feel like I can have my cake and eat it to since these are so simple and nutritious. Thank you so much!

Hi Sarah! I appreciate your feedback!

[@jgoldian47]

Made them 2 days ago, the whole family LOVED THEM. I wish i had an icing topper thing, i ended up just dousing them with swerve confectioners sugar and diipped them in cashew milk they were perfect~!

[@meenap9269]

I am so happy to have found your channel! :) I was an avid baker, but did not consider it healthy, so I stopped. Your channel has inspired me to bake again, so for that I am very thankful to you :) I will start with making my oat flour tomorrow! I cannot wait! Merry Christmas and God Bless!

[@HowToCookSmarter]

Hi there! Thanks so much for your amazing feedback! So glad you find your way do some baking again! Best wishes to you too!

[@kcl060]

I am gluten free, not at ALL by choice, and I am SO thankful for this recipe because your cookies are not crumbly! After years of perfecting recipes before I had to stop eating gluten, it's so frustrating to have delicious baked goods fall apart or just be too crumbly. Thank you so much! Also, people, have you tried that pumpkin roll?!!! What pumpkin roll, you ask? Look it up and bake it tonight! You can thank him later! SO crazy good! Just be sure to use the small jelly roll pan, not the bigger ones.

[@HowToCookSmarter]

Hi there! Wow, thanks so much for this amazing feedback! To be honest, that was the biggest question, how to make cookies not crumble. Adding starch into the mixture make the cookies really solid, but still soft to the bite, really enjoyed the results. And for the pumpkin roll, thanks you so much, you're right, it's one of the most delicious recipes I've made lately on the channel. Enjoy your holidays!
