I am a firm believer that anything with rolled oats in it has got to be good for you (no matter how much butter and sugar is involved!)   These biscuits are not only delicious, but you can play with the dried fruit and nut ingredients, or add some seeds to suit your tastes or what you can find in the panty.

• 200 g butter
• 1 c soft brown sugar
• 1 cup white sugar
• 1 egg
• ¼ milk
• ½ tsp baking soda
• 1 tsp vanilla
• 1 c flour
• 3 c rolled oats
• ½ c chopped walnuts
• ½ c chopped dried apricots

Preheat the oven to 180C.  Melt the butter and then mix in the sugars and egg, milk, soda and vanilla.  Add in the flour, oats, fruit and nuts and mix well.
Put teaspoons full on a greased oven slide and bake for 10-12 mins or until golden.  Cool on an oven rack.  Makes about 60.  (They freeze well too).
