Prep: 15 min; Bake: 9 to 11 min per sheet

Quick-cooking and old-fashioned rolled oats are interchangeable unless recipes call for a specific type. Instant oatmeal products are not the same as quick-cooking and should not be used for baking-you will get gummy or mushy results.

   ___ cup butter or stick margarine, softened
   ___ cup shortening
   _ teaspoon baking soda
   _ teaspoon ground cinnamon

   ___ teaspoon salt
   _ large eggs
   _ cups quick-cooking or old-fashioned oats
   _ cup all-purpose flour
   _ cup raisins, chopped nuts or semisweet chocolate chips, if desired

4. Bake 9 to 11 minutes or until light brown. Immediately remove from cookie sheet to wire rack.

Using Oats

Measuring
Measure oats either by pouring them into a measuring cup or by dipping the measuring cup into the oats container. There are many ways to use oats, including toasting and grinding them. Toasting oats gives them a delicious, slightly nutty, rich flavor and a bit of extra crunch. Ground oats can be used for some of the flour in cookies,
giving the cookies great flavor and a chewy texture.

Toasting
To toast oats, heat oven to 350°. Spread 1 to 2 cups old-fashioned or quick-cooking oats in an ungreased jelly roll pan, 15 1/2 x 10 1/2 x 1 inch, or on a large cookie sheet. Toast 15 to 20 minutes, stirring once, until light golden brown. Toasted oats can be used cup for cup in cookie and bar recipes calling for oats. They’re also great sprinkled on ice cream, yogurt and fruit.

Grinding
Place about 1 1/4 cups old-fashioned or quick-cooking oats in your blender or food processor. Cover and blend on medium speed about 1 minute, stopping blender occasionally to stir oats, until they are finely ground. You’ll get about 1 cup of ground oats. Ground oats can be substituted for about one-third of the amount of flour called for in a cookie or bar recipe without causing major changes in the texture.
