Maple Oatmeal Cookies have a wonderful crisp crunch and spicy flavor. I adapted the original recipe and added more flour. The original recipe called for less which made a crispy crunch cookie. I prefer a bit more of a cakey cookie. Both versions make a great breakfast cookie. The crisp version goes good crumbled in your yogurt.
