"In this oatmeal raisin cookie recipe the oats and nuts are toasted to add a richer flavor. A food processor is used in making the cookie batter."

Ingredients :

2 cups chopped walnuts
1 cup rolled oats
1 cup white sugar
1 cup packed brown sugar
1 cup unsalted butter, softened
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 2/3 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 cups raisins
1 1/2 cups unsweetened nut and grain granola

Instructions :

Prep :	Cook : 24M	Ready in :

Place 1 oven rack in the upper third of the oven and 1 rack in the lower third of the oven. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Coat 2 large baking sheets with cooking spray. On a microwavable plate, spread the walnuts and rolled oats. Microwave on high for 2 minutes. Stir and check for toasting. Microwave for an additional 2 minutes on high and stir. The nuts and oatmeal should now be nicely toasted. Dump in a large bowl.
In the food processor bowl fitted with a steel blade, combine the sugars, butter, eggs and vanilla. Process until smooth and creamy, about 30 seconds. In a small bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt. Spoon the flour mixture on top of the batter. Pulse 3 or 4 times to mix.
Scrape the batter into the walnut-oatmeal mixture. Add the raisins and granola. Fold the ingredients together.
Drop the cookies onto the sheets using 2 tablespoons of dough for each cookie. Bake in the preheated oven for 12 to 15 minutes, until the tops are just beginning to brown but the middles still look a little soft. Cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes and then transfer to a rack.
