Instructions

Preheat your oven to a consistent 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for even baking.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Set this dry mixture aside.
In a large bowl, cream together the sugar and shortening using an electric mixer until the mixture is light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, ensuring each is fully incorporated. Gradually stir in the dry flour mixture until just combined. Gently fold in the walnuts, oats, and diced apple until evenly distributed. Drop spoonfuls of cookie dough onto ungreased baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the edges are nicely golden brown. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
