HEALTHY CHEWY OATMEAL, RAISIN, PECAN COOKIES



Healthy Chewy Oatmeal, Raisin, Pecan Cookies image

This is a healthy low-calorie version of my original recipe. This recipe uses lower calorie ingredients such as Splenda Sweetener, Splenda Brown Sugar, and wheat flower. These cookies are plump, chewy, and full of crunchy pecans and raisins. The honey really sets if off with a unique taste. Once you make these cookies with the honey in them, you will never want to make oatmeal cookies without honey ever again! And it can be easily altered to your liking by changing the add-ins from raisins & pecans, to just about anything you want (walnuts, dates, dried cranberries, etc).

Crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside, these are the end-all-be-all oatmeal cookies.

Provided by Jennifer Segal

Categories     Desserts

Time 45m

Yield Makes about 32 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats (do not use quick cooking or instant oats)
1 cup all-purpose flour, spooned into measuring cup and leveled-off
½ teaspoon baking powder
⅛ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
1 stick (½ cup) unsalted butter, softened but still cool
1 cup packed dark brown sugar
1 large egg
¾ teaspoon vanilla extract
¾ cup coarsely chopped pecans
¾ cup raisins or currants

Steps:

  • Position two racks in the middle of the oven and preheat to 350°F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the oats, flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
  • In the bowl of an electric mixer, beat together the butter and brown sugar on medium speed until creamy, about 3 minutes. Scrape down the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula, then add the egg and vanilla and beat again until smooth, about 30 seconds.
  • Add the flour and oatmeal mixture and mix on low speed until just combined; add the pecans and raisins and mix again until just combined. Do not over-mix.
  • Drop the dough into 1½-tablespoon mounds about 2 inches apart onto the prepared baking sheets. Bake for 11 to 13 minutes, rotating the pans from top to bottom and front to back halfway through, or until the edges are slightly golden but the centers are still pale. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes, then either slide the papers off the pans onto cooling racks or transfer the cookies with a spatula. Once cool, store the cookies in an air-tight container.
  • Note: The recipe can easily be doubled, but keep in mind that oatmeal cookies are best enjoyed fresh on the day they are baked.
  • Freezer-Friendly Instructions: The Cookie Dough can be Frozen for up to 3 Months: Scoop the dough into balls, let set on a baking sheet in the freezer, then place in a sealable bag and press out as much air as possible. Bake as needed directly from the freezer. (Allow 1 to 2 minutes longer in the oven.) To Freeze After Baking: Let the cookies cool completely and store in an airtight container separating layers with parchment paper or aluminum foil. Before serving, remove the cookies from the container and let them come to room temperature.
