Description
Soft, chewy oatmeal raisin cookies packed with rolled oats and sweet raisins, with lightly golden edges and a delicious homemade flavor.
Ingredients
Scale
- 14 tbsp butter, softened
- 3/4 cup brown sugar, packed
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 3 cups rolled oats
- 1 cup raisins
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two large baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter, packed brown sugar, and granulated sugar together with an electric mixer until light, fluffy, and creamy.
- Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in the vanilla extract until the mixture is completely smooth and well combined.
- Gradually add the all-purpose flour, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and salt to the wet mixture. Mix on low speed just until a soft cookie dough forms.
- Gently fold in the rolled oats and raisins using a spatula until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
- Scoop dough onto the prepared baking sheets using a 2-tablespoon scoop for medium cookies or a 3-tablespoon scoop for bakery-sized treats. Leave a couple of inches between each cookie for spreading.
- Bake at 350°F for 9–11 minutes for medium cookies or 13–15 minutes for large cookies, just until the edges are lightly golden.
Notes
For soft, chewy cookies, avoid overbaking. Remove the cookies when the edges are lightly golden and allow them to cool on the baking sheets.
