I've gone through the Noom program and lost a fair bit of weight but I didn't lose my cravings for cookies. This oatmeal cookie recipe is my first successful crack and making something that I can use as my treat reward every day or so. It has enough sweetness to keep me happy and the whole wheat flour makes it pretty filling.

  2. 2

    Melt butter in the microwave. Approximately 30 seconds on high. Melting the butter is important because whole wheat flour is pretty heavy compared to all purpose flour.

  3. 3

    Mix butter and brown sugar in a medium bowl.

  4. 4

    Add egg, vanilla, salt and baking powder. Mix well.

  5. 5

    Add whole wheat flour. Mix until a dough forms.

  6. 6

    Mix in rolled oats.

  7. 7

    Add M&Ms. The dough might be a little heavy so you may find it easier to mix using your hand.

  8. 8

    Roll into 1.5 inch balls and set on baking sheet about 2 inches apart. Press lightly on each ball to flatten out slightly. I prefer my cookies to be fairly thick.
