Anyone have a lowfat oatmeal cookie recipe?

[nanny]

I have alot of oatmeal and I'm thinking I'll bake and freeze a bunch of cookies. They don't have to be delicious, just edible and lowfat.
And I want to use regular ingredients. Trying to stay away from the healthfood store, because I always spend too much money there.
Some sort of oatbar would be okay too. I want to bring them to school so that I don't end up at the vending machine.
Thanks.

Thanks! Looks good except I don't have corn syrup, I wonder what will happen if I just skip it?

I don't know what would happen if you left it out.In the past I have not been very successful in leaving ingredients out of recipes.This is an alternative:
If light corn syrup is not available, you can substitute a sugar syrup made with 1-1/4 cups sugar and 1/3 cup water, boiled together until syrupy

If you left out the corn syrup the batter would be very dry, not to mention that it would be missing some sugar which helps hold on to moisture.

I wonder if applesauce would work. I've seen it suggested in lowfat recipes.

It might. Give it a try and let us know.

I've heard, but have not tried, that you can substitute Splenda for sugar with the same measurement. So, you can use your usual recipe, but subsitute Splenda for sugar.

My mother does this some times and if done correctly can give a nice, soft texture.

Trying to make a something that I can carry with me so I don't waste $$ and calories at the vending machine.
So I used a cup of w.wheat baking mix, cup of oats (based on IMSAVED's recipe...thank you)
1/3 c. (ish) of sesame seeds, flax seeds, sunflower seeds, protein powder, raisins, choc. chips, coconut, cocnut oil, walnuts
chunk of ginger root
squirt of molasses
1 egg
1 banana
vanilla, cinnamon
drop of milk
tablespoon of white sugar
blended banana, ginger, nuts and seeds,cocnut, and oats in Ninja
Cookies came out pretty good, but not perfect.
Didn't have applesauce.
If anyone has any suggestions?
