Healthy Oatmeal Cookies (with Honey)
Ingredients:
Dry ingredients
1 cup whole wheat flour (a pinch more depending on the moisture of the mix)
1 1/2 cups of Whole Oats
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1 Tbsp Cinnamon
1/2 tsp Nutmeg (optional)
Wet ingredients
1/2 cup honey
1/2 cup oil (grapeseed or olive) I use olive. Also, if you would like to use butter instead, use 2/3 cup of softened butter and cream it with the dry ingredients before adding the wet.
1 egg
1 tsp Vanilla
Optional ingredients
1/2 cup raisins
1/2 cup walnuts
Preparation:
In a large bowl, mix all the dry ingredients together.
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).
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.
COOL the mix for 20 minutes in the fridge.
Preheat the oven to 335 degrees (lower temperature due to the honey in the recipe which will burn more easily).
Drop by teaspoonfuls onto your baking sheet.
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.
