Necessity is the mother of invention. In this case, this recipe is the daughter of a tight schedule and limited ingredients. In desperation—and without eggs, butter or baking soda—these egg-, dairy- and gluten-free oatmeal cookies were born. Instead of a would-be disaster, these treats became a huge hit and are now a family favorite thanks to a few key ingredients. Your little ones will love it, too!
