1 cup(s) raisins and/or dried cherries and/or dates
1/4 cup(s) orange or pineapple juice
1 cup(s) honey
1/3 cup(s) brown sugar,lightly packed
1/2 cup(s) cooking oil
1/2 cup(s) peanut butter, crunchy

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350°F. Lightly grease baking sheet; set aside. In microwave-safe bowl, combine raisins and juice. Microwave for 30 seconds. Cool, then run through food processor or chop fine.
  • In large bowl, combine honey, brown sugar, oil, peanut butter, eggs, raisin mixture, vanilla and salt; mix well. Add flour, baking soda and baking powder; mix well. Add oatmeal. (To chop fine, use food processor.) Mix well. Dough should be stiff, so add a little additional flour if needed.
