I love these cookies. They are a tiny bit chewy, crisp a bit on the outsude, and soft inside... My favorite recipe that doesn't include chocolate!

Mix the following in separate bowl and then add to first batter


1 1/2 c. flour

1 t. baking powder

1 t. cinnamon

1 t. salt

3 c. quick oatmeal

1 1/2 c. raisins

1 1/2 c. toasted pecans, chopped
