Best Ever Oat Cookies

These are very fast and easy to prepare and will turn out great even for beginner bakers. They are crispy and crumbly, chewy and delicious and keep well in an airtight container for up to 10 days.

Ingredients

3 tbsp butter, softened
2 tbsp oil (I use light olive)
1 large egg
2/3 cup caster sugar
1/2 tsp cinnamon
a pinch of nutmeg
a pinch of salt
1.5 cup porridge oats
1/3 cup self-raising flour
1/3 cup or more raisins
milk as needed
oil to grease the tray

Method

Preheat oven to 180 C. Grease a cookie sheet or oven tray with a bit of oil.

Mix butter and cugar until creamy. Add oil and egg and beat until smooth.

Add all the other ingredients until mixed well, adding abit of milk as needed to make thick dough.

Drop large spoonfuls on the tray leaving some space in between. This should make 9 large cookies.

Bake in the pre-heated oven 15-20 min and cool on the tray.

Tip: Do not attempt to take cookies of the sheet until completely cooled - they will break as they harden when they cool.
