Craisin and Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Cookies


Makes 20 cookies.
Preheat oven to 350.
Ingredients:
  • 1 cup whole-wheat flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/3 cup oil (I use Smart Balance)
  • 1/3 cup packed Splenda Brown Sugar Blend (if using normal brown sugar, double the amount)
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 cup rolled oats
  • 1/2 cup craisins
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips (whatever you have in the cupboard, I prefer 60% cacao)
In a medium bowl, mix sugar, egg and oil.
In a large bowl, mix flour and baking powder then add sugar-egg mixture.  You may need to use your hands to get an actual “dough” formed.  Once you have a dough, mix in oats, craisins and chocolate chips.  If you find that your dough is really dry and not coming together, you can add a tablespoon of water  or two and stir.
Spoon out onto cookie dish and bake 10-15 minutes until tops are golden and firm.
