This recipe is not Atkins friendly for Induction as it contains oats, flour and 2 kinds of sugar!

These cookies were good, although I did crush the flax seeds, and added a LITTLE bit of dark choc chips, and diced walnuts. They do get a bit hard, but fresh from the oven they are wonderful!

This recipe defeats the purpose of wanting to add flax to your diet. You have to crush or grind flax seeds, otherwise they will not be absorbed into your body-they will just pass through, which defeats the purpose of eating them.

Recipe as written is not good for Gastric Bypass people. Although you can exchange the granulated sugar with splenda, use the slpenda brown sugar mix, and that would make it quite a bit better.
