Poor mans cookies

Golden ranger cookies packed with coconut, oats and crispy rice cereal are a classic.

In the 1930s, producers of a popular radio program called Jake and Lena invited listeners to write in for this recipe. My mother changed the name from Jake and Lena Cookies to Poor Man's Cookies because they contained no eggs, milk or nuts. Despite the name, the cookies are rich in taste!

Poor Man's cookies come from an old issue of Country Magazine. They are the BEST oatmeal cookies and are made without eggs, or butter.

These easy no-bake cookies are a classic recipe that's been passed down from generation to generation! These cookies have chocolate, peanut butter, and quick-cooking oats making these cookies SUPER quick, yummy, and easy! Vintage recipes are even better if they’re no-fuss and no-bake! They are just like the kind Grandma used to make.

Fattigman, also known as Poor Man's Cookie, is a deep fried ribbon or knot shaped cookie made with simple ingredients and dusted with powdered sugar!

This is an especially fun recipe to make with kids because they can roll the dough into balls and flatten them on the baking sheets. The lemon and oatmeal add a nice twist to traditional sugar cookies. —Susan Marshall, Colorado Springs, Colorado
