Apple Oatmeal Cookies

This is a great cookie recipe that is easy to make and is better for you than most cookie recipes. I don't remember where this recipe originally came from but I have tweaked it a little to better suite our family's tastes.
Ingredients
1 medium Braeburn Apple chopped into small pieces
1/2 c. softened butter
1/2 c. brown sugar
1/2c. sugar
1/2t. vanilla
1 egg
1c. flour (I prefer whole wheat flour)
1/2t. baking powder
1/4t. salt
1 1/2c. quick oats
1/2t. cinnamon

1. Preheat oven to 350*. Lightly spray cookie sheet with cooking spray.
2. In a large bowl cream butter with both sugars.
3. Add vanilla and egg. Blend well.
4. Mix in dry ingredients (except apples).
5. Stir in apples.
6. Drop tablespoon size cookies onto prepared pans.
