The Lovell Table

I am a firm believer that sourdough anything is extra delicious- especially these oatmeal cookies! I love to make them with freeze dried strawberries and white chocolate as mix ins but you really could mix anything in. The best part about these cookies is that they use sourdough discard so they are perfect to make if you do not want to waste your discard!

If you are looking for more ways to use your discard try these crackers.

If you do not have sourdough discard but want to make some similar cookies try these.
