Notes

  1. Make a healthier batch of cookies by using maple syrup or raw honey instead of sugar.
  2. You can also make a lower sugar version by using Manuka honey instead. You can half the amount of sweetener without compromising the taste. Take note though that honey, like maple syrup, can change the consistency of the cookies.
