Steps

1

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Line cookie sheets with parchment paper. Your cookies turn out so much better with the parchment paper. Believe me! Buy some!
2

Melt butter and let cool slightly.
3

Mix flour, baking powder and salt; set aside (spoon the flour onto the measuring cup level off with a knife)
4

In a medium bowl, cream together the melted butter, brown sugar and the white sugar until well blended. Beat in the cinnamon, vanilla, egg, and egg yolk for 2-3 minutes untill light and creamy. Mix in the flour mixture until just blended.
5

Add the oats and raisins and nuts. Mix until blended.
6

Place 1/4 cup balls of dough onto the parchment lined cookie sheet. Bake for 14 - 16 minutes. Do not over bake. The edges should look brown and the centers still slightly soft. Let the cookies rest on cookie sheet for a couple of minutes before transferring to a cooling rack.
