I will tell you that these cookies were absolutely amazing! Imagine the most soft and moist oatmeal raisin cookie you've ever eaten with a nice tropical twist of pineapple. So good!
I will say that this recipe will be getting "Farrah-fied" to be more healthy next time by swapping out some of that shortening for canned pumpkin or applesauce and maybe even some adjustments to the brown sugar. For what it's worth, it was the best 147 calories worth of cookie I've had in a really long time :)
Pineapple Oatmeal Raisin Cookies
These are a super soft cookie that will hold up really well at room temperature. Store either in an air tight container or ziplock bag.

- 2 cups all purpose flour
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1 cup quick oats
- 1 cup raisins
- 1 cup crushed pineapple (I drained out most of the juice so it wasn't too watery)
- 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2/3 cup Crisco shortening
- 1 egg, lightly beaten (beat in a bowl by itself before adding to the rest of the ingredients)
Once everything is thoroughly incorporated, drop by heaping tablespoons onto a cookie sheet. The recipe should make 24 cookies if you use a heaping tablespoon. If you make smaller cookies you will get more...I just prefer a bigger cookie :)
Bake @ 350 degrees for about 9-12 minutes or until just barely golden brown on the bottom. They will still be soft when you take them out of the oven, but you will be able to see the bottoms getting that golden color. Let them sit on the cookie sheet for 2-3 minutes to set up after they come out of the oven and then transfer them to a wire rack to cool the rest of the way.
