By grinding some of the oatmeal into flour first, it imparts a delicious nutty flavor throughout the cookie, and we can use less all-purpose flour while adding in some more grains. Trail mix: You can use a store bought variety or you can make your own by combining nuts, seeds, dried fruit and/or chocolate chips. The combination I like best for these cookies is a mixture of pecans, walnuts, almonds, pepitas, dried cranberries, raisins, and chocolate chips. These thick, soft, and chewy Healthy Trail Mix Cookies are a nutritious way to curb that sweet tooth!
