In a separate bowl, stir together flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, cloves, and nutmeg
Stir half of the dry ingredients into creamed mixture
Stir in apples and raisins, then stir in remaining half of dry ingredients and milk
Mix well
Drop batter (from about a big tablespoon) 2 inches apart onto a lightly greased baking sheet
Bake for 10-12 minutes (I did 8-9 minutes because we like them soft and they were perfect)
