Oatmeal Millet Cookies


These cookies are really good. I especially like the crunch from the millet.

1/2 cup butter, softened
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
1 egg
1-1/2 cups rolled oats
3/4 cup whole wheat flour
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp ground ginger
Pinch cinnamon
1/3 cup hulled millet

In bowl, cream butter with sugar; beat in egg. Mix together oats, flour, baking powder and soda, salt, ginger and cinnamon; stir into creamed mixture. Mix in raisins and millet. Drop by tablespoonfuls onto lightly greased baking sheets; flatten slightly using floured fork. Bake in 325°F (160°C) convection oven or 350°F (180°C) conventional oven until golden, 10 or 11 minutes. Makes about 3 dozen cookies.
