Preparation Steps
1
Chop the dried fruits into smaller pieces, then soak them in lukewarm water for 10 minutes to soften. Drain well and set aside.
2
Let the butter soften at room temperature. In a mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and honey until light and creamy.
3
Add the egg and vanilla extract, then mix thoroughly until the batter is smooth and well combined.
4
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, rolled oats, cinnamon, salt, and baking soda.
5
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing with a spatula or by hand until a uniform dough forms.
6
Fold in the prepared dried fruits into the dough, ensuring they are evenly distributed.
7
Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
8
Shape the dough into small balls and place them on the prepared baking sheet. Slightly flatten each ball to form a cookie shape.
9
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for approximately 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
10
Let the cookies cool completely on a wire rack, then serve or store in an airtight container.
