How to Make Healthy Chewy Oatmeal Raisin Pecan Cookies

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. Optional: Soak 1 cup of raisins in water overnight for extra plumpness.
  3. In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups wheat flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon, ½ teaspoon baking soda, and ¼ teaspoon salt.
  4. In a large bowl, cream together ½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, ½ cup Splenda sweetener, and ¼ cup Splenda brown sugar using an electric mixer until light and fluffy.
  5. Beat in ¼ cup honey, 2 large eggs, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  6. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined.
  7. Stir in 2 cups rolled oats, 1 cup raisins (soaked or unsoaked), and 1 cup chopped pecans.
  8. Drop rounded tablespoons of cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving 2 inches between each cookie.
  9. Gently flatten the mounds slightly for thicker, chewier cookies, or flatten more for thinner cookies.
  10. Bake for 11-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.
  11. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 3-5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  12. Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
