Today's Oatmeal Raisin Cookie Recipe is sponsored by Isopure!

Recently I've been trying to decide what my favorite kind of cookie is. And honestly, it's a tougher decision than it sounds like.

The two kinds of cookies I'm between are chocolate chip, and oatmeal raisin. And I think I'm leaning towards oatmeal raisin these days. There's just something about a soft and chewy oatmeal raisin cookie that just can't be matched by any other kind of cookie.

So, since oatmeal raisin cookies are my fav, I decided to make a more calorie-friendly version. And I knew from the get-go I didn't just want this recipe to be great on calories, but great on flavor, texture, and consistency too. What I really wanted was for these oatmeal raisin cookies to taste like "the real thing".

Spoiler alert, I actually pulled it off!

Yep, this oatmeal raisin cookie recipe is all that and a glass of milk. Almond milk that is, cause we're all about saving calories. Ok, that was a bad dad joke, but seriously for only 100 calories I dare you to find a better oatmeal raisin cookie recipe.

I dare you!

My Oatmeal Raisin Cookie Essentials List

First and foremost, I always use a food scale to weigh-out all of my ingredients accurately
To save some carbs, and add protein to the cookies I used this flavorless protein powder
You'll want to use "Quick Oats" - like these - for this oatmeal raisin cookie recipe
Also, make sure you use coconut oil - this ones great - to give your cookies that soft and chewy consistency
You'll only need one big bowl - I always seem to use this one - to make this recipe
Make sure you have a large baking sheet because this recipe makes 20 cookies
