My mom loved your channel. She tried many of your things. She is in heaven just Wednesday. She sends her love. Thank you so much for giving her so much enjoyment and new activities. She loved making the cream cheese. God bless you. I am now subscribed 🌹
Oh Suzy! I am so sorry to hear about the passing of your mom - but yes, she is in Heaven now and watching over you. You have a special angel in Heaven! God bless you too! Love, Mary
Suzy, I am so sorry to hear you have lost your mother. I hope you can find some comfort is this difficult time. Sending very good thoughts your way. Best wishes
My mom made a similar cookie and included grated apple, carrot and crushed pineapple. She made them big enough to fill a sandwich bag and froze them. We called them hunting cookies because my dad loved to take them elk hunting and said they were a meal in a ziplock.
@@TSunshineful Mom never measured much. She used the oatmeal cookie recipe on the Quaker oatmeal box and added a medium carrot, a small can of crushed pineapple (drained) and a half or a whole apple depending on how big it was and how much apple she wanted. She also put in chocolate chips, raisins or dried cranberries and walnuts. Just a generous sprinkle of each. The dough should be full enough to fall apart when you put it on the pan to bake and the cookies often ended up a handful of crumbly goodness in a ziploc bag. Lol. Sure were yummy though!!
@@theallenshire268 have you baked these cookies since ? & if so, what oven temp did you use ? & how long ? these sound delicious & i want to try them but I'm Not good at guessing temps & times. Hope you can help.
@@dragons8822 Mom always used her oven at 350. I also use that temp for most everything. It works good for these cookies too. Gotta watch close though because they burn quick and can also end up doughy because of the extra moisture from the pineapple. Experiment to get the times right just by watching for the edges to get brown and then if they are doughy put them back for another minute and try again. You can do it!
I called these "Breakfast Cookies ". My daughter was not a big breakfast fan, but two of these and a glass of milk got her off to school in the morning with breakfast in her belly. I used all organic ingredients. Better than any kids cereal out there and she got to brag to her friends that she got to eat cookies for breakfast! :)
You look like an angel cooking in your kitchen, and the cookies look superb! I love how kind you are about people in transition... it’s sad that is somewhat rare, and you’re such a breath of fresh air! Thank you for making these videos!
Oh Mrs. C!! Thank you so much for the kind words. Yes, I never want to make people feel they need to have all the perfect ingredients or all the perfect equipment. I like to think that my traditional foods "tent" is a very big one where all are welcome no matter where they are on their journey! So glad you are here!! Love, Mary
I absolutely love how organized you are! You teach while explaining the “why” behind the action. I appreciate everything you teach me. Thank you! Greetings from Sacramento, CA 🐻 ☀️
I love your recepies... Mary you are very good teacher explaining soo well with every deatils ..God bless you ....sending lots of hugs from Vancouver Canada 😘
My mother-in-law used to make this as a traybake and called it gunge because she had no idea where the recipe came from or the quantities. I think cookies (biscuits to us in the UK) would be easier that cutting slices. Love the addition of coconut. I think someone has already mentioned its similarity to Anzac biscuits.
I would imagine creaming the butter and sugar for so long also helps the large granules of sugar to melt. I have found that quick mixing with short bakes don't dissolve the natural cane sugar enough. Can't wait to try these!
These are excellent! The only changes I made was I only had 1 cup coconut sugar. For other 1/2 cup used organic white sugar. I left out the raisins. ( we are not fans) Husband and kids loved them!
Thank you nice lady. Another great video. -- I think they call them cowboy cookies because, back in the day, a cowboy could live on them while travelling a distance on horseback. They make a good, simple, hearty meal. At least that's how I've always thought of them. -- Born and raised in Ft. Worth. Glad you came here, Mary!
These look really good!! I've been wanting a good oatmeal cookie that is soft in n the middle. Thank you so much for sharing this recipe!! God bless you and your channell.
I just bought some Sucanat at the health food store yesterday based on your recommendation in the food prepper video I watched yesterday or the day before.
I love you, Mary! You are such a good teacher: “Use any salt you have!” 😊 Is there a good tasting healthier cookie that doesn’t use oats? I am over oats in my “goodies”, but also want the more whole wheat, less sugar added effect...and I need an idea because my birthday is coming up and I am trying to replace a store bought cupcake or something like it. Thank you! Love, me. 😘🤗
Hi Susan! Early Happy Birthday!! Hope you are doing great!! You can actually make these cookies without oats. You can just replace the same amount of oats with more whole grain flour. Have you visited Heidi - over at Rain Country Homestead? She has so many recipes for sweets that are whole grain/whole sweetened. I know she'll have something for you. Search her channel. Here is the link to her channel: ru-vid.com/show-UC6LntleHjrsHuh4QJmiVjNw Love, Mary
@@GpD79 ty! Yes I use some. I am one who tastes that bitter taste with Stevia, but I use some others. I am interested in blending prunes in a little water to make a paste and maybe use it as a cookie filling, something like that.
Hi Mary, I am Naitika from Goa, India. I followed your receipe of Cowboy Cookies step to step and it turned out ultra delicious. The cookies made my Sunday super excited. Thank you for your receipe. Warm wishes.
Looks delicious. Got my Kindle reader on Saturday. It had nearly two thousand books on it. Nearly half of it I already read but that leaves a lot that I haven't read yet. We got off of school schedule so we've been missing the earlier live conferences. The only later conference we can catch is his speech therapist which is only on Fridays. Think he's grown again as his long pants are about two inches too short on him. I'm guessing he needs the next size up now at least in length. He usually gets the taller before getting thicker. Tend to need to belt or tighten the pants that are adjustable inside of them.
Dear Mary, we love watching your videos. We have made so many things and each time they come out so delicious. You have a very warm, motherly vibe. Whatever a mom makes turns out delicious and that is exactly why we feel your recipes always turn out to be so delicious. Sensing you all the love, good wishes.
Anxious to try these cookies!! Mary, do you think adding toffee bits along with everything else would be good or too much? I look forward to using sucanat for a sweetener.
Oh Ann! I think toffee bits would be amazing!! You really can add in anything you want. I might do half toffee bits and half chocolate chips (or nuts or raisins) so that you keep to a one cup amount. Love, Mary
Great question! Sucanat is less processed than “sugar in the raw” but that is a great product to start with as you are moving away from white sugar. Love, Mary
Wow! life changing recipe, thanks! Did you ever try them with a non wheat flour? spelt is considered a wheat (you probably know that). Same with bread, any suggestion for a non wheat flour that will work with sour dough starter? You mention rye and yes but something not so strong in flavor?
Hi Dianne, That is a great question. I have made these with spelt and einkorn - both wheats but not a non-wheat flour. But this would be fun to experiment with. Yes, rye would be strong. I wonder how rice flour would work...or other options such as amaranth flour potato flour, corn flour, chick pea flour, oat flour, or arrowroot. Arrowroot powder (flour) is easier to find at the grocery store (and very inexpensive at the Asian grocery). And it has been used for years to make cookies so maybe that would be a mild option. As to a nut flour - I guess almond flour might be worth a try. And then there is coconut flour but I really DO NOT like baking with it! In any event...I'll have to experiment! Love, Mary
@@MarysNest I know what you mean about coconut flour, it's so dry. Now that you mention it, Arrowroot; yes. Thank you Mary...here's a song for you ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-mtFav19_UhE.html
Hi Elaine, Yes - butter is wonderful for you. And it's the best when it is made from the cream from cows that have been allowed to graze on pasture. Look for a butter that is very yellow. The more yellow the butter, the higher it is in vitamin A, a fat-soluble vitamin needed for skin health, immune function, and healthy vision. Butter also contains vitamin E, which supports heart health and acts as an antioxidant to protect your cells against damage caused by molecules called free radicals. Additionally, butter contains very small amounts of other nutrients, including riboflavin, niacin, calcium, and phosphorus. Hope this helps. Love, Mary
Hi Denise, That is a great question. I have not tried it, so I am not 100% sure how it would turn out. Can you use an alternative low-cal sweetener that has a bit more bulk to it...like Monk Fruit? That might work better. Love, Mary
Oh Wendy!! I love this brand. It’s bobs red mill thick cut old-fashioned rolled oats. My grocery store sells it. It’s often on the bottom shelf in the oatmeal section. You have to keep your eye open for it. Hope you can find it. Love, Mary❤️🤗❤️
Here's the trick: make healthy cookies, don't tell anyone they are healthy. ;-) Hubby and kiddos will snitch and feel happy, and you don't worry (so much). LOL Of course, if _you_ manage to forget they are healthy, we got a problem. ;-)
