Honey Tips

How Honey Is Created

Honey is created when bees mix plant nectar, a sweet substance secreted by flowers, with their own bee enzymes.

Directions

Preheat oven to 375°.
Using an electric mixer beat together peanut butter, honey and sugar until creamy. Add egg, milk, oil and vanilla. Mix until combined. Beat in flour and baking soda. Then add oats and raisins.
Drop batter by tablespoonfuls onto ungreased cookie sheet. Bake about 8 minutes until cookies are golden brown. Remove to rack and cool.
Yields: approx. 5 dozen cookies
