If the question refers to Instant Oatmeal sold in individual serving packets, the answer is no. That sort of oatmeal contains ingredients other than oats, including sugar, thickeners, flavors and preservatives. "Quick Oats," sold in large round boxes, can be used in no-bake cookies.
You can use this recipe with any oatmeal:
Makes about 20 - 24 large cookies
170g unsalted butter, room temperature
215g light brown sugar
1 large egg
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
105g plain flour
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
260g oats (THESE CAN BE ANY NORMAL OATS OR WEIGHTWATCHERS OATS.)
110g walnuts or pecans, toasted and chopped (optional)
1 cup dried cranberries, cherries, or raisins or 1 cup white or dark chocolate chips (optional)
(optional):To toast nuts: Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (177 degrees C) and toast nuts for 8-10 minutes until lightly browned and fragrant. Let cool and then chop into pieces. Set aside.
Line 2 baking sheets with parchment(baking) paper.
In the bowl of your electric mixer (or with a hand mixer), cream the butter and sugar until creamy and smooth (about 2 - 3 minutes). Add the egg and vanilla extract and beat to combine. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon. Add the flour mixture to the creamed mixture and beat until doughy. (optional): Stir in the nuts, oats, and dried cranberries or chocolate chips.
For large cookies, use 1/4 cup of batter (I like to use an ice cream scoop) and space the cookies about 2 inches (5 cm) apart on the baking sheet. Then wet your hand and flatten the cookies slightly with your fingers so they are about 1/2 inch (1.25 cm) thick. Bake the cookies for about 12 - 15 minutes at 180 degrees celcius, or until light golden brown around the edges but still soft and a little sticky/gooey in the centers. Remove from oven and let the cookies cool a few minutes on the baking sheet before transferring them to a wire rack to cool.

Yes, but one should reduce the amount of salt in the recipe. When one does not have baking soda, it is best to use a cookie recipe that calls for baking powder, because the two ingredients are not identical.
Vegetable oil and butter are two types of shortening. All fats and oils are shortening, and can be substituted for each other, but this will affect the flavour and texture of the food, as some shortenings have stronger and different flavours, and also have different melting points.
Cooked oatmeal can be safely stored in an airtight container in your refrigerator for up to 7 days. If you like to add toppings to your oatmeal, such as fruit or nuts, store those ingredients separately. Always be sure your leftover oatmeal is put away shortly after it cools. For optimal food safety, experts recommend never eating leftovers that have been left out for 2 hours or more.
Yes. Oatmeal is good for the body and also for the skin. Oatmeal absorbs dirt and excess oil from the surface of the skin and gentle enough for sensitive skin.
To make an oatmeal and yogurt mask just mixed 2 tablespoon oatmeal, 2 tbsp organic yogurt and a few drops of honey. Apply it on the face, leave it on for a few minutes then wash it off with lukewarm water.
the Costco oatmeal rasin cookie has 230 calories
It depends on size and ingredients. The bigger the cookie, the more calories. The more sugar and fats (butter, oil, lard, Crisco) in them, the higher the calories. Start adding nuts or raisins, and it goes up even more. Brent & Sam's gourmet oatmeal and pecan cookies, two inches in diameter (rather small as oatmeal cookies go), are 60 calories each. The big cookies like you might buy in a coffee shop or deli can easily go as high as 300 or more calories each.
In a chocolate chip cookie there are 300 calories.
No. Oatmeal raisin cookies have varieties of texture and density throughout each cookie.
If you make the equations equal, it is 25/30 of oatmeal you have and the recipe calls for 6/30 of a cup. After using the amount of oatmel the recipe required for the cookies, you will have 19/30 of a cup left, or just under 2/3 a cup.
Replace 1 egg with 1/4 cup applesauce or 1 small mashed banana.
These are simple to make but they really do turn out better when making them on a dry day because the sugar mixture binding together the oats is more like a cooked fudge and candy is very humidity sensitive. If they turn out a bit soft, they are still good--just refrigerate or freeze them to make them more solid.
saucepan (medium saucepan), add the butter, sugar, milk, and cocoa powder. Cook over medium high heat stirring occasionally until the liquid is mixed. Bring the mixture to a full rolling boil and boil for 1 minute. Don't start timing until you've reached a full-out boil!
Awrey oatmeal date cookies are packaged under many different lables, for instance: "sysco", "swan", "Nifda", ect. You can also find them at

I'm 90% sure this is right. Whole wheat flour isn't a problem. It may change the flavor slightly and the texture will be slightly coarser but not a problem. Other flours do not contain gluten which forms the structure or texture in baked goods. Some cookies would survive and others would just fall apart because there is nothing to hold them together. You just have to experiment with a recipe and see what works. I have ground oatmeal into flour for peanut butter cookies and the result was acceptable.
You can't-it's been discontinued and is now in the flavor graveyard. Go to the website and ask them to bring it back!
yes but it would need nutmeg to take the Cinnamon's place.
Quaker is the company most known for making oatmeal raisin cookies. There are many other recipes to bake your own oatmeal raisin cookies that are available on web sites such as All Recipes, Food Network, and Simply Recipes.
Oatmeal cookies might be made with raw eggs. They should be baked thoroughly so that the egg is cooked. If so, they will be fine to eat after a week. Store them in a covered container so they don't get too dried out.
Old Fashioned oatmeal is best for cookies
