Yield Makes about thirty 3-inch cookies

Number Of Ingredients 13

12 tablespoons (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter
1 1/2 cups firmly packed dark brown sugar
1/2 cup apple butter
1 large egg
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup dark raisins
1 apple, peeled, cored, seeded, and finely diced
4 cups old-fashioned rolled oats

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F. Butter three 12 × 17-inch rimmed baking sheets. Set aside.
  • Cream the butter and brown sugar together in a large mixing bowl with a hand mixer on high speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add the apple butter and mix until well blended. Add the egg and mix on low speed until just incorporated.
  • Mix together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, and salt in a bowl. Add the flour mixture to the butter mixture on low speed and combine. Add the raisins, apples, and oats and gently mix to incorporate.
  • Using a small ice-cream scooper, scoop the dough into 1-inch balls. Place on the prepared baking sheets, leaving at least 2 inches between cookies. Flatten each cookie slightly with the palm of your hand.
  • Bake for 15 minutes, rotating the pan halfway through baking, until the edges of the cookies are light brown.
  • Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 2 minutes before transferring them with a spatula to wire cooling racks to fully cool.
