Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 230 grams unsalted butter
- 200 grams light brown sugar
- 100 grams granulated sugar
- 2 pieces large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 190 grams all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 300 grams rolled oats
- 150 grams raisins or chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the unsalted butter, light brown sugar, and granulated sugar together until light and creamy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition, and then mix in the vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Avoid overmixing.
Stir in the rolled oats and, if using, the raisins or chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
Scoop the dough with a tablespoon or cookie scoop and place it on the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches of space between each cookie to allow for spreading.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers should still look slightly underbaked for a chewy texture.
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week or freeze for longer storage.
