Recipe Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
- In a large bowl, combine the rolled oats, eggs, milk, raisins, walnuts, dark brown sugar, ground cinnamon, and ground cloves. Mix well until all ingredients are thoroughly incorporated.
- Using a teaspoon, drop spoonfuls of the cookie dough onto an ungreased cookie sheet. (Tip: If you prefer, you can lightly spray the cookie sheets with cooking spray for easier removal.)
- Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for approximately 12 minutes, or until they are golden brown and set. To check for doneness, insert a toothpick into the center of a cookie; it should come out clean.
- Once baked, allow the cookies to cool on the cookie sheet for one minute.
- Transfer the cookies to wire racks to cool completely before serving or storing.
