Step 1

In a large bowl whisk the oats, flours, baking soda and salt. Set aside.

Step 2

With the paddle attachment on your mixer, cream the margarine and almond butter until combined. Add the sugars. Next mix in the eggs one at a time until thoroughly mixed. Pour in the almond extract. Mix again.

Step 3

Slowly mix in the dry ingredients oats/flour/soda/salt combo. Stir in the diced apples with a spatula. Make sure to incorporate all the tiny bits into the dough by scraping the sides and bottom of the bowl.

You are probably safe with a 9 to 10 minute bake. However, as a French Cordon Bleu pastry professor told me, “Always trust ze eyes and nose!”
