Mix 1 cup salted butter and 1 cup sugar in a stand mixer or with a blender.  

Add 3 cups quick (minute) oats. 

Meanwhile, 3/4 cup AP or gluten free flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1/2 teaspoon ground cloves, and 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon.  Add this to the butter/sugar/oat mixture.  

Mix until just combined.  Add 3/4 cup dried fruit (my favorite is cherries) and 3/4 cup mini chocolate chips.  Mix until combined.

Optional:  Add the zest of one lime and a couple of squeezes of lime juice.  

Form into 1 inch balls and place 1.5 inches apart on a cookie sheet lined with foil or parchment.  Bake 350  F. for 12-15 minutes.
