Pumpkin Oatmeal Cookies

These low-fat pumpkin cookies are great for the fall holidays and make a healthy after-school snack for the kids too.

You can soak the raisins in water if you want the cookies to turn up less dry. If you don't like raisins, you can always replace them with chocolate chips.
