OATMEAL SCHOOL COOKIES



Oatmeal School Cookies image

Comes from "Laurel's Kitchen" cookbook. I've been told I should market these. It's very versatile...I add dried cranberries and different kinds of nuts as well as substituting flax seed, (which is an excellent source of omega-3 fatty acids) for some of the wheat germ. I feel pretty good about giving these to my kids and loved ones and I hope if you make them that you'll enjoy the same feedback as I do. mmm mmm

1 egg
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
1/2 teaspoon salt

  • Cream together the butter and sugar with electric beaters.

  • Stir flour, baking powder, wheat germ, and rolled oats together with a fork.
  • Add raisins so they get rolled in flour and don't stick together.
  • Blend well with other ingredients; I usually end up using my hands.
  • Add a little water if necessary to hold mixture together.

  • Flatten them slightly.

This is also from the New Laurel's Kitchen cookbook. I think that there are different versions in different publications of this cookbook. Anyway, the only change I've made is to substitute cherries for the raisins.
