  room temp
• 1/2 tsp baking soda
• 1/2 tsp cinnamon
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1 cup pecans
• 1 cup raisin
• 1 banana

  optional

Instructions

• 1 Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• 2 Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
• 3 Roast nuts by placing them on the baking sheet and bake for 10 minutes.
• 4 Beat the butter and sugar until creamy and smooth. Add egg and vanilla until
  combined. For soft and moist cookies add a small mashed banana to the mixture.
  
  In a separate bowl whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon. Add
  the flour mixture to the creamed mixture till incorporated. Stir in oats, nuts,
  and raisins.
• 5 I prefer smaller cookies so I use a small ice cream scoop, place them on the
  baking sheet 1" apart, then pat them down with my fingers. Bake cookies for 11
  minutes. Once they're done place them on a wire rack to cool, then keep in a
  cookie jar.
