140 calories a cookie

  • 3/4 cup rolled oats
  • 1 cup whole-wheat flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup butter, softened
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/3 cup brown sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 cup chocolate chips
  • 1/2 cup walnuts

Mix oatmeal, flour, baking soda, cinnamon and salt in a small bowl. In a separate bowl, beat butter, add sugar, eggs and vanilla and beat until fluffy. Add dry ingredients and beat until well combined. Mix in chips (I used semi-sweet) and walnuts (or any other kind of nut). Bake at 350 degrees for 13-15 minutes.

This recipe makes about 24 cookies, but I doubled it, so I could make enough for a class and for my roommates.
