Ingredients:
1 cup butter or margarine, non-hydrogenated
3/4 cup brown sugar
3/4 cup sugar
2 eggs
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
1 cup white, unbleached flour
3/4 cup whole wheat flour
2 teaspoons cinnamon
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 cups old fashioned oats
4 Tbsp sugar
2 tsp cinnamon
Preheat the oven
to 375 ° and lightly grease cookie sheets. Cream together the softened
butter, eggs, vanilla, 3/4 cup brown sugar and 3/4 cup sugar until light
and fluffy. In a medium bowl combine the flours, two teaspoons of cinnamon,
baking soda, and salt. Blend the flour mixture into the butter mixture
and stir in the oats. In a small bowl combine the 4 tablespoons of sugar
with the 2 teaspoons of cinnamon. Form small balls of dough by hand
and roll the balls in the cinnamon/ sugar mixture. Place on the cookie
sheet and carefully put in the oven making sure that the balls do not
roll together. Bake for 7 to 10 minutes, and remove from the oven while
they are still soft to the touch. Cool for 2 minutes on the cookie sheets,
then remove to wire racks to finish cooling. Store in airtight containers.
