Cookies ala Bizarro

INGREDIENTS:
1/2 cup shortening
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3/4 cup honey
1 egg
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/8 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 pinch salt
1 cup rolled oats
1/2 cup chopped pecans
1/2 cup grated zucchini
1/2 cup raisins

DIRECTIONS:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease cookie sheets.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the shortening, vanilla, and honey. Beat in the egg until well blended. Combine the flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt; stir into the honey mixture. Stir in the rolled oats, zucchini, pecans and raisins. Drop by teaspoonfuls on greased cookie sheet, and flatten slightly using a fork.
Bake 10 to 12 minutes in the preheated oven, until browned. Remove from cookie sheets to cool on a wire rack.

No pecans, no raisins. Used more sugar, and some caramel sauce as well as maple extract. Threw in chocolate chips. Mom and Dad didn't like them- they're very moist and dense. Maybe another egg would help? But I liked them, as did work people.
