ingredients
- 1 1⁄2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1⁄2 teaspoon sea salt

- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 3⁄4 teaspoon white stevia powder

directions

- In a medium mixing bowl, sift together the flour, salt, baking powder & nutmeg.
- Place butter in another mixing bowl & whisk until light & fluffy. Add the stevia & eggs (one at a time), whisking well after each egg. Add the flour mixture, about 1/2 cup at a time until thoroughly combined. Stir in the oats & currants.

- Variations: For cinnamon-raisin oatmeal cookies, simply substitute 1 cup raisins & 1/4 teaspoon of cinnamon for the currants & nutmeg. For chocolate oatmeal cookies, substitute 1 1/2 cups carob chips for the currants. For a low-sugar variation, use grain-sweetened chocolate or carob chips.

I have been a Central Illinois resident all my life.
My hobbies include fishing with my husband, reading, counted cross stitch, and of course, cooking (especially baking)!
I currently work in an office, behind a desk, pushing paper. My dream would be to open my own bakery.
Spending time in the kitchen is very relaxing to me, and it keeps me connected to my domestic side!
