Ingredients: 1 cup whole wheat flour (a pinch more depending on the moisture of the mix); 1 ½ cups rolled oats; ½ teaspoon baking soda; ½ teaspoon baking powder; ½ teaspoon salt; 1 tablespoon cinnamon (I actually use about 3 Tbsp, got to love cinnamon); ½ teaspoon nutmeg (optional); ½ cup honey; ½ cup olive oil (corn or grapeseed are also acceptable); 1 tablespoon molasses; 1 egg (beat with 1 Tbsp Water); 1 teaspoon vanilla; ½ cup raisins (1 cup for my Dad's batch) (optional); ½ cup walnuts (more for my Dad's) (optional)

Servings: persons

1 cup whole wheat flour (a pinch more depending on the moisture of the mix)
1 ½ cups rolled oats
½ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon cinnamon (I actually use about 3 Tbsp, got to love cinnamon)
½ teaspoon nutmeg (optional)
½ cup honey
½ cup olive oil (corn or grapeseed are also acceptable)
1 tablespoon molasses
1 egg (beat with 1 Tbsp Water)
1 teaspoon vanilla
½ cup raisins (1 cup for my Dad's batch) (optional)
½ cup walnuts (more for my Dad's) (optional)

1
In a large bowl, mix all the dry ingredients together.
2
In a medium bowl, mix all the wet ingredients together.
3
Hint: when measuring out the honey, spray the measuring cup with oil or baking spray--your honey won't stick).
4
Mix the wet stuff with the dry stuff.
5
Add the raisins and walnuts and mix.
6
If the mixture seems too wet, add a bit of flour.
7
If it isn't binding together very well, you may wish to add an egg white.
8
COOL the mix for 20 minutes in the fridge.
9
Preheat the oven to 335F (lower temperature due to the honey in the recipe which will burn more easily).
10
Drop by teaspoonfuls onto your baking sheet (I recommend lining the baking sheet with parchment paper).
11
Press down with a fork to ensure even cooking.
12
Bake for about 15 - 20 minutes or until golden on the bottom of the cookie.
13
The cookies freeze very well and make a great snack!
14
Enjoy.
