Oatmeal Nut Cookies

Katie requested this recipe of mom's, so I thought I'd post it here for all. We actually got this from Cheryl Arney who gave it to us along with some of her own family recipes for our weddings. Mom's original must have been lost in the shuffle. It smacks of Grandma Davidson, so I suspect it came from her.

Oatmeal Nut Cookies

1 c applesauce
1 c brown sugar
1/2 c c shortening
1 1/2 c oatmeal
2 eggs
1 t baking soda dissolved in 1/4 c hot water
2 1/2 c whole wheat flour
1/2 t salt
1/2 t cinnamon
1 c raisins boiled in a small amount of water
1 c chopped walnuts

Mix shortening, brown sugar, and eggs thoroughly. Add oats, dry ingredients and soda. Add raisins and nuts.

Bake at 350 for 15 minutes.
