Ingredients:  
3 cups rolled oats
1/3 cup chopped walnuts or pecans
1 cup raisins
1 cup water
1 1/2 cups sugar
1/2 cup apple butter
2 large eggs
1/4 cup canola oil

Directions:
Directions:
Preheat oven to 375°F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper or coat with cooking spray.

Spread rolled oats and nuts on an ungreased baking sheet and toast until lightly browned, 5 to 7 minutes; set aside.

Combine raisins with water in a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer over low heat and cook until the raisins are plumped, about 10 minutes. Drain, discarding liquid, and set aside.

Beat sugar, apple butter, eggs, oil and vanilla in a large mixing bowl with an electric mixer until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes. Sift flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon and cloves into another bowl. Stir the flour mixture into the apple butter mixture with a spoon. Stir in the reserved oats, nuts and raisins; mix well.

Drop the dough by rounded teaspoonfuls, about 2 inches apart, onto the prepared baking sheets. Bake, one sheet at a time, until lightly browned, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer cookies to racks and let cool.
