Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 c all purpose flour
1 c brown sugar, lightly packed
1 c rolled oats
1 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp cinnamon, ground
1/2 c butter or margarine
1/2 c raisins
1/3 c sour cream or plain yogurt, either one works
1 egg, beaten
3 Tbsp molasses
1 tsp baking soda

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 375 F. Lightly grease baking sheet(s)
  • 2. In a large bowl, combine flour, brown sugar, oats, baking powder and cinnamon
  • 3. Cut in the butter until mixture is evenly distributed
  • 4. In a food processor, blender, or with a chopper, chop the raisins
  • 5. In a separate bowl, stir together sour cream and egg. In another bowl, mix molasses and baking soda. Stir into the sour cream mixture. Add chopped raisins and stir
  • 6. Add sour cream/molasses mixture to the flour mixture, and stir into a stiff batter
  • 7. Chill in the freezer for about 15 minutes, until easier to handle
  • 8. Shape into walnut-sized balls. This can be easier if your hands are slightly wet
  • 9. Place two inches apart on lightly greased baking sheet. Flatten cookies with the back of a spoon
  • 10. Bake for about 15 minutes until a rich golden brown. Cookies may look done after about 10 minutes, but they are better if cooked 3 to 5 minutes longer
