Oatmeal Cookies With Apricots And Pistachios Recipes

Steps:

• Put oven racks in upper and lower thirds of oven and preheat oven to 350°F. Butter 2 baking sheets.

Stir together flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon in a small bowl, then add to dough and mix at low speed until just combined. Fold in oats, apricots, and pistachios.
• Spoon rounded tablespoons of dough about 2 inches apart onto baking sheets. Bake cookies, switching position of sheets halfway through baking, until golden brown, 16 to 18 minutes. Transfer cookies with a spatula to racks. (Cookies will crisp as they cool.)
