OK, so I have a thing for oatmeal cookies. Someday I will write a cookbook full of oatmeal cookie recipes. For now, add this one to the list.

Carrot Pineapple Oatmeal Cookies

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly oil a 13 x 9 inch glass baking dish. In a large bowl, combine 1/2 cup vegetable oil, 1 cup packed brown sugar, and 2 eggs.

Add 1 cup grated carrot and 1 cup crushed pineapple, drained. Combine 1  and 1/2 cups unbleached flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and 1 teaspoon cinnamon. Add to the first mixture and mix well.

Stir in 3 cups oats, 1 cup golden raisins, 1 cup chocolate chips, and 1 cup chopped almonds.

Spread the dough in the baking dish and bake for 25-30 minutes, until a fork inserted into the center comes out clean. Cool and cut into 24 bars.

Rich and gooey, but wholesome ingredients!
