½ tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
½ tsp salt
½ cup unsalted butter, room temperature
½ cup vegetable oil
1 cup packed brown sugar
¾ cup white sugar
1 tsp vanilla
2 eggs
2½ cups quick oats
1 to 2 cups of your favorite mix-in (dried fruit, any flavor baking chip, nuts, etc.)

Preheat the oven to 350°.
Sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt, and set aside.
In a medium bowl, cream butter, oil, brown sugar, and white sugar until smooth. Beat in eggs and vanilla.
Gradually stir in the sifted ingredients until well blended. Mix in oats and your favorite mix-ins. Drop from a tablespoon onto ungreased cookie sheets.
Bake for 9-11 minutes in the preheated oven, or until the edges are golden. Let them set on the cookie sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool. Makes about 4 dozen cookies.
