For this week Blogging Marathon is about baking. I chose three dishes that you can bake in this holiday season.First one on the series is Oatmeal cookies.
I brought whole oats to make granola ,after making that, i left with some of the whole oats. When i searched for some cookie recipe, i found this simple recipe in joyofbaking site and tried it immediately.The cookie is crispy outside and chewy inside. So try this cookie recipe for this christmas and enjoy it with your family.


Oatmeal Cookies without eggs

Preparation Time : 10 mins | Cooking Time : 15 minsMakes : 12 
Recipe Category: Cookies | Recipe Cuisine: General
Ingredients

Old fashioned whole oats - 1 cup(Not the instant one)
Butter - 1/4 cup
Brown Sugar - 1/4 cup heaped
Maida/All purpose flour - 1/4 cup
Baking soda -1/4 tsp
Cinnamon powder - 1/4 tsp
Dry nuts & fruits - 1/4 cup (i used raisins & almonds)
Milk - 1 & 1/2 tbsp

Procedure
Preheat the oven at 160c for 10 mins
Take the room temperature butter in a bowl, whisk it well. Then add the sugar and cream it well with whisk.Take the flour,baking soda & cinnamon powder & mix it well. Add this flour mixture into butter&sugar.Mix it well. Add the oats ,dried nuts & fruits and  give a good mix .Add milk little by little and form a dough.Take the cookie dough in a tbspn and place it on the parchement lined baking tray.
Similarly do for all the dough and then lightly flatten the top with fingers. Bake it in the oven at 160c for 12-15 mins. Mine got ready in 12 mins.That's it tasty oatmeal cookie is ready.
Notes:
  • Keep an eye on cookie after 10 mins. Remove from oven when you see the sides get darker. At that the time, the center may look soft,but it firms when it cooled,so dont tempt to bake more.
  • Add more or less milk , until the dough comes together.
  • If you prefer you can add 1/2 tsp of vanilla essence.
  • Instead of dry fruits & nuts, you can add chocolate chips too.
  • Dont try this cookie with instant oats.
