I'm addicted to pinterest. Like crazy addicted to it, but fortunately, I don't just pin. I also create what I pin (granted, I haven't quite had the chance to try out the 4,415 things I've pinned but I'm working up to it :)
I'm also super addicted to instagram (find me: elizabethmanna).
So when I saw on instagram that jessica had a series on her blog called
I knew I had to jump on board!!
This week I made some healthy breakfast cookies that I saved to my "let's get physical, physical" board. I did this b/c I'm back to hard core weight watchers and doing a couch to 5K program (more on that in another post).
So here's the inspo for the cookies I made from chocolate covered katie.
I altered the ingredients slightly. I threw in some mashed baked sweet potato, added some honey, a sprinkling of sweetener, and a dark chocolate chip on top when they were done.
And here is what mine looked like
The verdict:
I thought they were pretty tasty. Granted, I'm the only one that thought so....lmao.
No one else would touch em (well Michael had a bite, but he wasn't a fan. He's not a fan of anything not covered in sugar).
They are NOT sweet at all which Katie tells you in her original post. This will not taste like a regular ol oatmeal cookie. Even with the lil bit of sweetener that I added, you couldn't tell that I had. Having the lil dark chocolate chip on there helps though.
But for a lil healthy cookie, I would def. make these again. Next time I'd like to try em with some applesauce maybe and 1/2 the recipe since I'm the only one who likes them.
Also, I've been storing them in the fridge.
Can't wait for PinterTest Kitchen next week :)
yay Elizabeth!!! you made it to the party :). and I'm right there with you, starting WW again on Monday. will definitely have to try these. so glad you linked up!!
