Healthy Oatmeal-Raisin Cookies

Nearly everyone loves a good oatmeal cookie, and oats are a healthful ingredient: they are a good source of thiamin, riboflavin, vitamin E and fiber. Reducing the fat while keeping the cookies crisp is an artful balancing act. Using apple butter is the secret in this recipe, along with an egg white. For a softer cookie, do not flatten the dough as much before baking.
