Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup Brown sugar, packed
- 0.5 cup Granulated sugar
- 2 Large eggs
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking soda
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 3 cups Old-fashioned rolled oats
- 1.5 cups Raisins
- 0.5 cup Chopped walnuts (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar together until creamy and smooth.
Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
In a separate mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and salt.
Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until combined.
Stir in the rolled oats, raisins, and chopped walnuts (if using) until fully incorporated.
Using a large spoon or cookie scoop, drop heaping tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden but the centers still look slightly underbaked.
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve and enjoy your big, fat oatmeal raisin cookies!
