Healthier Oatmeal Raisin Cookies Food

HEALTHY OATMEAL/RAISIN COOKIES

Steps:

• Mix brown sugar thru vanilla together.
• Add flour, soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg.
• Stir in oatmeal, raisins& walnuts.
• Drop on cookie sheets which have been sprayed or I use parchment paper.
• (flatten with fork) Bake in 350 oven for about 10 minutes.
• (I do not like a lot of sugar so by adding raisins you also add a little additional sweetness) Enjoy!

HEALTHY OATMEAL RAISIN COOKIES WITH HONEY

Steps:

• 1.In a large bowl, mix all the dry ingredients together.
• 2.In a medium bowl, mix all the wet ingredients together. Hint: when measuring out the honey, spray the measuring cup with oil or baking spray--your honey won't stick).
• 3.Mix the wet stuff with the dry stuff. Add the raisins and walnuts and mix. If the mixture seems too wet, add a bit of flour. If it isn't binding together very well, you may wish to add an egg white.
• 4.COOL the mix for 20 minutes in the fridge.
• 5.Preheat the oven to 335 degrees (lower temperature due to the honey in the recipe which will burn more easily).
• 6.Drop by teaspoonfuls onto your baking sheet (I recommend lining the baking sheet with parchment paper). Press down with a fork to ensure even cooking.
• 7.Bake for about 15 - 20 minutes or until golden on the bottom of the cookie. The cookies freeze very well and make a great snack! Enjoy.

OATMEAL RAISIN COOKIES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4 and line 2 baking trays with baking parchment. Pour 50ml/2fl oz boiling water over the raisins and leave to soak for 20 mins until plump. Drain, reserving the liquid.
• Meanwhile, in a large bowl, mix together the oil and sugar. Gradually beat in the egg, along with the reserved water from the raisins, the cinnamon and vanilla extract. Sift the flour, bicarbonate of soda and a pinch of salt into the bowl, then add the oats. Finally, mix in the raisins.
• Drop heaped tbsps of the cookie dough onto the baking trays, well spaced apart as they will spread when cooking. Bake for 12-15 mins until golden. Leave to cool on the trays for 10 mins before tucking in, or transfer to a cooling rack to cool completely. Will keep in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
