Yummy Oatmeal Raisin Cookies by Rev. Carol A. Ingle (Raven)
3/4 cup of whole wheat flour
1/2 tsp of baking soda
3/4 tsp of vanilla essence
1/2 tsp of ground cinnamon
1/4 cup of unsweetened applesauce
1/3 - 1/2 cup of sugar or healthy substitute
3/4 cup of dry oats
2 Tbs coconut oil
1/4 cup raisins
1 egg
1/4 cup of nuts or seeds (optional)
1/4 tsp of salt (optional)
Preheat oven to 350F. Prepare a cookie sheet either with non-stick spray or a parchment paper.
Sift the salt, cinnamon, baking soda (and salt if you are using) into the flour in a bowl.
In the mixing bowl, beat coconut oil together with the sugar. Add in applesauce and egg and beat well. Now add in the flour mixture and beat on medium until a semi-stiff dough forms. This dough will be very slightly sticky. At this point, add the vanilla essence, raisins and nuts (if you are using) and mix well into the dough. This step will require a little more strength because the dough is pretty stiff due to the whole wheat flour. But just try to incorporate the raisins into the dough.
Drop by tablespoonful about 3 to a row. Flatten to about 3/4". Just keep in mind that this dough will barely flatten out when it's baking so what you see is what you get. Just don't flatten it too thin that it will turn out to be crunchy like a biscuit instead of crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside. You will probably get about 15 to a standard 9"x13" cookie tray.
Bake in the center of oven for about 10-12 mins. When done, remove from cookie tray and cool on a rack. It is very good just out of the oven and still slightly warm!
Notes:
1) I used 1/3 cup of sweetener and find it just right. But I do not like sweet stuff too much so for most folks, you will probably want to try about 1/2 cup - 3/4 cup of sweetener.
2) The finished cookie will look "uncooked" on the inside but that's because of the color of the whole wheat flour together with the applesauce so don't be afraid to take a bite. It's pretty good for a low calorie cookie.

Patchwork Merchant Mercenaries had its humble beginnings as an idea of a few artisans and craftsmen who enjoy performing with live steel fighting. As well as a patchwork quilt tent canvas. Most had prior military experience hence the name.
Patchwork Merchant Mercenaries.
Vendertainers that brought many things to a show and are know for helping out where ever they can.
As well as being a place where the older hand made items could be found made by them and enjoyed by all.
We expanded over the years to become well known at what we do. Now we represent over 100 artisans and craftsman that are well known in their venues and some just starting out. Some of their works have been premiered in TV, stage and movies on a regular basis.
Specializing in Medieval, Goth , Stage Film, BDFSM and Practitioner.
Patchwork Merchant Mercenaries a Dept of, Ask For IT was started by artists and former military veterans, and sword fighters, representing over 100 artisans, one who made his living traveling from fair to festival vending medieval wares. The majority of his customers are re-enactors, SCAdians and the like, looking to build their kit with period clothing, feast gear, adornments, etc.
Likewise, it is typical for these history-lovers to peruse the tent (aka mobile store front) and, upon finding something that pleases the eye, ask "Is this period?"
A deceitful query!! This is not a yes or no question. One must have a damn good understanding of European history (at least) from the fall of Rome to the mid-1600's to properly answer. Taking into account, also, the culture in which the querent is dressed is vitally important. You see, though it may be well within medieval period, it would be strange to see a Viking wearing a Caftan...or is it?
After a festival's time of answering weighty questions such as these, I'd sleep like a log! Only a mad man could possibly remember the place and time for each piece of kitchen ware, weaponry, cloth, and chain within a span of 1,000 years!! Surely there must be an easier way, a place where he could post all this knowledge...
Traveling Within The World is meant to be such a place. A place for all of these artists to keep in touch and directly interact with their fellow geeks and re-enactment hobbyists, their clientele.
