Mini Oatmeal Skillet Cookie With A Twist

Jump to Recipe

So for today’s sweet treat, I decided to skip making dozens of individual cookies and make one large skillet cookie instead — this Mini Oatmeal Skillet Cookie (Cake). Plus, I added a refreshing twist by adding a rarely used ingredient in a cookie recipe.

This twist or cookie surprise gave this large, sugar-free oatmeal cookie more texture and a very unique taste. It was so delicious, you’ll even eat the crumbs.

This recipe is super simple and likewise don’t require a long list of ingredients either. I’ve discovered that there are still those times in the beloved kitchen where I still wish to expedite and move things right along without to much of a delay and this was definitely one of those days.

Furthermore, if you are not baking for a large clan, then making one fairly large cookie whether oatmeal, chocolate chip or otherwise can help reduce the baking time and therefore, the time spent hovering over a hot stove. So there are definitely those times it’s handy, dandy and wise to simply improvise.
