Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
In a large bowl, cream together the butter, light brown sugar, and granulated sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes using a hand or stand mixer.
Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in the vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, ground cinnamon, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, beating until just combined. Do not overmix.
Stir in the rolled oats and raisins until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, drop rounded spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving at least 2 inches of space between each cookie.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers look slightly underbaked. Do not overbake, as the cookies will continue to set as they cool.
Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve and enjoy your delicious oatmeal raisin cookies with a glass of milk, coffee, or tea!
