Around our house, we especially enjoy these slightly sweet nutty cookies for a midday snack. But my family also likes them for a nice breakfast treat.
Ingredients:
1-1/2 cups king arthur premium 100% whole wheat flour
1/2 cup king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
2 tablespoons quick-cooking oats
1/2 cup butter, cubed
3/4 cup finely chopped pecans
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1/4 to 1/2 cup fat-free milk
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, combine flours and baking powder; stir in oats. Cut butter into pieces; cut into flour mixture until well mixed. Add pecans and sugar; mix well. Stir in enough milk with a fork to form a stiff paste.
2. Turn onto a floured surface; knead lightly until smooth. Roll out on a floured surface to 1/4-in. to 1/8-in. thickness. Cut with 1-1/2-in round cookie cutter.
3. Place on baking sheets coated with cooking spray. Bake at 375° for 10 minutes or until lightly browned. Cool on wire racks. Yield: about 7-1/2 dozen.
