A wonderful combination of pumpkin and oatmeal make these favorites in
many
households. I got the recipe off the Pumpkin Nook web site. They have
some really good recipes there.

Pumpkin Oatmeal Cookies

About 5 dozen cookies

1 cup canned pumpkin
1 cup sugar
1 3/4 cups rolled oats
1 egg, beaten
1 1/2 cups flour
3/4 cup shortening
1 cup raisins or chopped nuts
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
3/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon salt

Preheat oven to 400 . In a mixing bowl, stir together flour, sugar, baking
soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Add shortening and stir until mixture is
crumbly. Stir in egg, pumpkin, oats and raisins or nuts. Drop
teaspoonfuls of dough onto an ungreased cookie sheet. Bake fifteen minutes
or until done.
