They are a nice alternative for those that aren't crazy about raisin oatmeal cookies, like me. My kids liked them. I increased the cherries by 1/2 cup from the original recipe just to my taste.
Ingredients:
1 1/4 cups flour
1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup unsalted butter, softened or 1 cup apple butter
1 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup honey
2 large eggs
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
3 cups rolled oats
1 1/2 cups dried cherries
Directions:
1. Heat oven to 350°F Use a silpat or parchment paper on your cookie sheets for best results.
2. Whisk flour, cinnamon, baking soda, nutmeg and salt in a bowl.
3. Cream butter,sugar and honey in a mixer until creamy.
4. Add the eggs and vanilla and mix well.
5. Slowly add the flour mixture, mixing on low just until incorporated.
6. Stir in oats and cherries by hand.
7. Scoop tablespoon sized drops onto a cookie sheet. Bake 10 minutes. Watch very closely the last 2 minutes, they go from done to over done very quickly.
8. Allow to cool for a few minutes on the cookie sheet before moving to a cooling rack.
