How to Make Walnut Raisin Apple Cookies

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened unsalted butter and ¾ cup packed light brown sugar until light and fluffy (about 2 minutes).
  3. Beat in 2 large eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
  4. Stir in ¼ cup apple juice and 1 teaspoon lemon extract.
  5. In a separate bowl, whisk together 3 cups all-purpose flour, 1 ½ cups rolled oats, 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon, 1 teaspoon baking soda, ½ teaspoon salt, ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg, and ¼ teaspoon ground cloves.
  6. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  7. Fold in 1 ½ cups peeled and chopped apples, 1 cup raisins, and 1 cup chopped walnuts.
  8. Drop rounded tablespoons of cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
  9. Bake for 11-13 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.
  10. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
