    If you didn't also post this in Food & Drink>Cooking & Recipes, do so. Those folks may be more helpful. I did find this reference in the source article "1 cup of oat bran can be replaced with 1 or ¾ cup rolled oats." so I'm assuming the reverse is true and you can replace 3/4 or 1 cup of rolled oats with 1 cup of oat bran (or basically a 1:1 ratio or a 0.75:1 ratio.

    Instead of oat bran, consider oat fiber (even more insoluble fiber than bran) as a substitute for sugar.

    Just halve the volume of the sugar of oat fiber and add a few drops of stevia extract.

    Your cookies will be more moist and definitely not killing you.
