week end treats

Not the best week-end for us-  full moon is making everyone twitchy and snappy all of a sudden... I really hope upcoming weeks will be much better...

We made Apple Oatmeal Cookies on Saturday though, they turned out really good.
1/2 c of butter, melted
2/3 c of packed brown sugar 
1 egg
2 tsp of baking powder 
1/2 tsp of baking soda ( I add lemon juice to soda too)
1 apple, peeled and shredded
1 c of whole wheat flour
1 c of rolled oats
1 tsp of vanilla extract
1 tsp of almond extract
pinch of nutmeg
cinnamon if desired (I didn't have any at home)
raisins if desired
Preheat oven to 375 F
1) Mix well butter and sugar, add egg and vanilla extract, almond extract and nutmeg- mix again.
2)Add baking powder and soda and shredded apple
3) Add half of the flour and mix until even, add the rest of the flour and mix again.
4) Add oats, mix well with a spoon. I think raisins would work very well with this recipe but I forgot about them :D
5 ) Make small balls (or use a teaspoon) and put them on a baking sheet. Bake for 12 minutes.
YUM!
