~ cran-apple pecan cookies ~ so good!
I had one Northern Spy apple left, so I took one of my other recipes and experimented. What a wonderful combination. Bites of apple, nuts and cranberries. The addition of oatmeal makes makes them a bit chewy. We loved them! I'll be freezing what's left for the holidays. That's if there are any left...LOL

How To Make ~ cran-apple pecan cookies ~ so good!
-
Step 1Preheat oven to 350 degree F. In a large bowl, cream together the butter, oil and sugars. In another bowl, mix together the flour, salt, baking powder, cinnamon and baking soda. Add this mixture to the creamed mixture a little at a time, until well blended. Fold in the oats, cranberries, nuts and apples.

Step 2Drop by heaping tablespoonfuls on an un-greased cookie sheet, about 2 inches apart. Bake for 10 - 12 minutes or until lightly browning on edges. I took mine out when they looked a little under cooked in center, yet brown around edges as this leaves them a little chewy.

Step 3Place cookies on cooling racks to finish cooling.
