Fannies’ oatmeal cookies taste very similar, both in texture and sweetness, to her Hermit Cookies. While this recipe does not call for dried fruit, I would highly encourage the addition of some raisins or craisins. 

Recipe

• 1 egg
• 1/4 cup sugar
• 1/4 cup milk
• 1/4 cup heavy cream
• 1/2 cup oatmeal flour
• 2 cups flour
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 3/4 cup raisins (optional)

Combine dry ingredients.  Next, add wet ingredients. When fully mixed add dried fruit. Roll dough on a floured surface as thin as possible. Bake at 350 for 20 minutes or until golden brown.
