Oatmeal and Currant Cookies

So today seemed like a good day for baking. I wanted to try oatmeal cookies for ages now and finally, for my brothers' delight, that day came today. My brothers are always happy when i bake something because that means extra sugar in their bloodstream. They love anything that's sweet and preferably home made.

Preheat the oven to 200°C. Combine all the dry ingredients together in a bowl and make a well in the centre. In a different bowl beat the egg lightly then add oil and milk. Stir it and pour into the well. Mix all the ingredients together until well combined.

Line a baking tray with greaseproof paper. Place little balls of dough on the tray and flatten them with fork. Put in preheated oven for about 15 minutes or until golden. Leave to cool down for few minutes. And enjoy :)
