Ingredients
- 3/4 cup ( 1 1/2 sticks, 6 ounces) unsalted butter
- 1 1/2 cups brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon ginger
- 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon vanilla
- 1 large egg
- 1 1/3 cups (4 5/8 ounces) old-fashioned rolled oats
- 1 1/4 cups King Arthur Traditional Whole Wheat Flour
- 2 cups dried fruit: cranberries, diced apples, chopped dates, raisins, chopped apricots, or the dried fruits of your choice
- 1 cup (3 3/4 ounces) diced pecans or walnuts
Preparation
Step 1
Cream together the butter, sugar, spices, leaveners, salt, and vanilla. Beat in the egg. Add the oats, flour, fruit, and nuts, and stir to combine.
Drop the dough by heaping tablespoonfuls onto a lightly greased or parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake the cookies in a preheated 350F oven for 7 minutes; reverse the pans on the racks, and bake for an additional 7 to 8 minutes, until cookies are beginning to brown around the edges, but are still soft in the center. Remove from the oven, and cool on a rack.
