Steps
Sequence Step
1In a large bowl, combine all the dry ingredients and mix together.
3Mix the wet and dry mixtures. Add the raisins and walnuts and mix some more. If the mixture seems too wet, add a bit of flour. If the mixture is not binding together very well, add an egg white.
4Cool the mixture for 20 minutes in the fridge.
5Preheat the oven to 335 degrees (lower temperature due to the honey in the recipe--this burns more easily).
6In a medium bowl, mix all the wet ingredients together.
6Drop batter by teaspoonfuls onto a baking sheet. It may be a good idea to line the sheet with parchment paper. Press the teaspoonfuls with a fork to ensure even baking.
7Bake for about 15 to 20 minutes or until golden on the bottom of the cookie.
8Enjoy! (These cookies freeze very well, too!)
