Ingredients
  • 3 cup Oats
  • 1 cup White flour
  • 4 teaspoon Cinnamon
  • 2 teaspoon Baking powder
  • 2 teaspoon Baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon Nutmeg
  • 1/2 cup Brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup Apple juice
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
  • 1 ea Apple, peeled and grated
  • 3/4 cup Raisins
Directions
  1. 1
    Preheat the oven to 400&# 194;°F (200ðC) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
  2. 2
    In a food processor, combine 1 cup of oats, white flour, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda, nutmeg, and brown sugar.
  3. 3
    Process the mixture until the oats are finely ground and all dry ingredients are well incorporated.
  4. 4
    Transfer the ground mixture to a large mixing bowl and stir in the remaining 2 cups of whole oats.
  5. 5
    Add the grated apple, raisins, apple juice, and vanilla extract to the bowl.
  6. 6
    Mix everything together thoroughly until a cohesive, moist dough forms.
  7. 7
    Drop the dough by tablespoonfuls onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  8. 8
    Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, checking frequently after the 12-minute mark to prevent burning, as the sugar content can cause them to brown quickly.
  9. 9
    Remove from the oven and allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Tip: Grating the apple directly into the bowl helps distribute the moisture evenly throughout the dough.
