Active Time:  20 Minutes
Total Time:  45 Minutes
Yield:  about 2 1/2 dozen cookies
These chewy oatmeal cookies are full of shredded carrots and raisins.
RECIPE INGREDIENTS
1 1/2  cups rolled oats
3/4 cup  raisins
2 tablespoons   hot water
1 1/2  cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2  teaspoons ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon   baking soda
1/2 teaspoon   salt
1   large egg
1   large egg white
2/3 cup  packed brown sugar
1/2 cup  light corn syrup or honey
1/3 cup  canola oil
1/4 cup   prune pie filling  (lekvar) (see Note)
1 tablespoon   vanilla extract
1 cup  grated carrot  (1 large carrot)

Tip: Prune pie filling (lekvar) is a convenient replacement for much of the fat in baked goods. It can be found with the pie fillings in the baking section of most supermarkets.
DIRECTIONS
Preheat oven to 350°F. Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper or coat with cooking spray.


Spread oats on an ungreased baking sheet and bake until lightly toasted, 5 to 7 minutes. Meanwhile, combine raisins with hot water in a small bowl; cover and set aside to plump.


Whisk together flour, cinnamon, baking soda and salt in a bowl. Whisk together whole egg, egg white, brown sugar, corn syrup (or honey), oil, prune pie filling and vanilla in a mixing bowl. Add the dry ingredients and stir with a rubber spatula just until the dry ingredients are moistened. Stir in carrot, the toasted oats and the plumped raisins with any soaking liquid.


Drop the batter by rounded tablespoonfuls, about 2 inches apart, onto the prepared baking sheets. Bake, one sheet at a time, until the tops spring back when touched lightly, about 15 minutes. Transfer cookies to racks and let cool.
