These chewy oatmeal cookies deviate from the norm thanks to the addition of almond butter, sliced almonds, and black raspberries. If frozen black raspberries are difficult to find where you live, you can replace them with either frozen red raspberries or frozen blackberries–just make sure to give them a rough chop before adding to the batter, since they're often bigger than black raspberries.
