Raisin Nut NibblesMy children loved this recipe. It handy to freeze the dough in freezer bags to make up about a dozen at a time for after school. Saves on baking and your time and keep the kids in a more healthy snack till dinner. I adapted the recipe for whole wheat flour and had no problems. You can add nuts or choc. Chips etc., but we were too poor with 5 children for the extras. They taste great as is. Preheat oven and * heat the raisins first then set aside. This makes a big batch.
1 cup water (use any liquid left over from the cooled raisins to this water)
3 eggs (see egg sub. Post)
1 tsp. Vanilla
1 cup of shortening
2 cups sugar
4 cups flour ( a little less if using whole wheat)
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp baking powders ( no alum.)
1 tsp cinnamon
½ tsp nutmeg
1 tsp salt
Optional: ½ to 1 cup chopped nuts
Mix dry the add the liquids.
*Add the raisins to boil gently for 5 minutes and cool before adding to the recipe.
Bake 350 for 12 to 15 minutes (use 1/8 inch ice cream scoop to freeze on a sheet in freezer, cooked or uncooked (after frozen transfer them to freezer bags.)
Add protein powder to cookies...about 3 gram protein per cooked will stop spikes in blood sugars.
