Raisin-Walnut-Oatmeal Cookies

I have not made these so I cannot comment on how they might be:

1 1/2 cups rolled oats (not quick cooking)
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp ground cinnamon
4 oz (8 tbs) unsalted butter, softened
3/4 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
1 extra-large egg, room temp
1 tsp vanilla extract
2/3 cup raisins (or other dried fruit)
2/3 cup coarsely chopped walnuts (or pecans or almonds)

Preheat oven to 350. Prepare 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper or non-stick liners.

In a large bowl, combine the oats, flour, baking powder and cinnamon (you could add 1/4 tsp of salt too).

Beat butter unti light and fluffy but your prefered mixing method. Add sugar to butter and cream together well. Scrap sides of bowl occasionally.

Beat egg lightly with vanilla. Add to butter mixture, scraping sides of bowl as needed.

Add the dry ingredients in 3 stages, mixing well after each addition.

Add raisins and walnuts and blend well.

Use a small (1 1/2 in dia.) ice scoop or spoon to drop small mounds onto baking sheets, leaving 2 inches between cookies. Bake 5 minutes, then switch sheets and bake 6 to 7 minutes more, until set and golden.

Remove sheets from oven and cool on baking sheets on racks. Remove with a spatula to racks.

Makes 3 dozen.
