Servings 3 dozen
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups quick-cooking oats rolled
- 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 3/4 cups whole wheat flour
- 1/2 cup brown sugar firmly packed
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 1/2 cup raisins
- 1 cup apple (such as Granny Smith) peeled, and finely chopped
- 1 egg slightly beaten
- 1/2 cup honey
- 1/2 cup oil
- 1/3 cup milk
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375*F.
- IN a medium bowl, combine oats, flour, whole-wheat flour, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon. Stir to combine.
- Stir in raisins and apples.
- In a large bowl, combine egg, honey, oil, and milk. Stir in dry ingredients. Mix to form a smooth batter.
- Drop batter onto ungreased baking sheets, using a rounded teaspoon of dough for each cookie, leaving 2 inches between. Dip fingers into the water. Press dough down to about 1 1/2 inch diameter.
- Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until lightly golden. Remove sheet from oven. Transfer cookies to cooling rack.
Notes
Check cookies while baking to make sure they are not getting overdone on the bottoms, especially if using a dark colored baking sheet. Dark cookie sheets absorb more heat and tend to burn cookies before baking is complete.
