Iced Oatmeal-Apple Cookies



These cookies are full of flavor, soft, chewy, and they stay that way-- they don't turn into bricks the next morning. They are one of my favorite go-to cookies and the only way to make an oatmeal raisin cookie.

Iced Oatmeal-Apple Cookies
*Makes about 2 dozen

4 Tablespoons butter, melted
1 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 large egg
1 large apple, peeled and grated
1 1/2 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup golden raisins

For glaze
1 cup confectioners sugar
3 Tablespoons maple syrup

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Mix butter and sugars together. Add egg and grated apple. Mix until well blended. Mix in oats, flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Mix in raisins.

Scoop onto a greased cookies tray. Bake for 7-8 minutes. DO NOT OVERBAKE. That them out when they start to turn golden brown but aren't quite set. Let them cool completely.

For glaze, whisk together sugar and syrup until liquidy and smooth. Drizzle over cookies, let set.
