Easy Oatmeal Cookies Recipes with Pecans and Raisins

For our family these little oatmeal cookies are absolutely perfect snack. Every time Ziv is late in the morning and can’t have breakfast he grabs one of these.  What’s best is the kids don’t even realize that among the raisins and pecans there are oats.  My Rhea prefers these over chocolate chip cookies.

Let’s talk ingredients – shall we?

• Oats – I would recommend you use regular rolled oats.  I use the quick cooking because my kids prefer that the oats just disappear in the background.
• Nuts – our favorite is pecans but obviously you can substitute your favorite nuts. If you prefer to make it nut free go ahead and omit the nuts or replace them with more oats.
• Raisins & Cranberries – I use both because my Aadi likes the Raisins and Rhea loves the cranberries but again use your favorite.
• Cinnamon – I love cinnamon in these but this time I didn’t have any at home so in the video I have not used it. But just mix it up in the flour. Often I will substitute the pumpkin spice or ginger/nutmeg for the cinnamon.
• Chocolate Chips – Yes you can add chocolate chips. I don’t because we often eat these for breakfast so I try to avoid chocolate for breakfast. I know I know!!
