3 cups old fashioned oats
1 ¹⁄₄ cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
¹⁄₂ teaspoon cinnamon
¹⁄₄ teaspoon nutmeg, fresh grated
¹⁄₈ teaspoon ground cloves
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
6 tablespoons shortening
1 cup dark brown sugar
¹⁄₂ cup granulated sugar
1 large egg
¹⁄₄ cup water
2 teaspoons vanilla
¹⁄₄ teaspoon almond extract
1 cup golden raisin
1 cup pecans, toasted and chopped (optional)

directions

Preheat oven to 350.
In a medium bowl, whisk together oats, flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg and cloves.
In a large mixing bowl, beat together shortening, butter and sugars until light and fluffy. Beat in the egg, scraping down the sides if necessary. Add water, vanilla and almond - mix until combined. Add dry ingredients and stir by hand just until combined. Fold in the raisins and nuts.
Using a tablespoon cookie scoop, drop the dough onto parchment lined baking sheets. Bake until the cookies are a light golden, about 14 minutes. Remove and let cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes. Place the cookies on a wire rack to finish cooling.
