Ingredients

2 cups All Purpose Flour

1 tsp Baking Powder

½ tsp Baking Soda

1 tsp Ground Cinnamon

¾ tsp Salt

¾ cup Unsalted butter (1 ½ sticks), room temp

¼ cup Shortening, room temp

½ cup Sugar

1 cup Dark Brown Sugar, packed

¼ cup Honey

2 Eggs, large

1 Tbsp Vanilla extract

3 cups Old-fashioned Oats

1 cup Toasted Walnuts, chopped

Preparation

Preheat oven to 350°F. About 20 minutes before you are ready to mix up the cookies, toast the walnuts in the preheated oven for about 5 minutes, or until fragrant. Be careful not to burn the nuts. Then chop.

Cool to room temp. Pop them in the freezer to hurry this along, if you like.

In a medium bowl, combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon and kosher salt. In a stand mixer with a paddle attachment (or a handheld electric mixer) beat the butter, vegetable shortening, and both sugars in large bowl until fluffy, about 1-2 minutes. Beat in honey, eggs, and vanilla. Gradually beat in flour mixture. Stir in oats and walnuts.

Drop batter by tablespoonfuls onto baking sheets lined with parchment, spacing mounds 2 inches apart. Flatten cookies slightly. Bake cookies until golden brown, about 12-14 minutes. Cool completely on sheets.
