They Said It Could Not Be Done Oatmeal Cookies

Cookies without sugar? “That’s not a cookie”. Cookies without flour? “You’re crazy!” Cookies without out butter? “You lost your mind and need help!” Cookies without eggs? “Sorry but I am calling the local psychiatric facility, it’s for your own good”.

People said it could not be done yet here we are. Making a cookie without the essential items that make it a cookie such as eggs, butter, sugar or flour. We live in a modern time were people are pushing the boundaries of food and for good reason.

Food is about being creative. This creativity is was helps spawn ideas like cauliflower pizza dough or sweet potato pie crust used in a quiche (see quiche with sweet potato crust). Without creativity, food would just exist to keep us alive.
