Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 113 grams unsalted butter
- 150 grams light brown sugar
- 50 grams granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 130 grams all-purpose flour
- 0.5 teaspoons baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 180 grams rolled oats
- 100 grams raisins (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 butter, light brown sugar, and granulated sugar together until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the egg and vanilla extract, and mix until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet mixture and stir until just combined. Avoid overmixing.
Fold in the rolled oats and raisins (if using) until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, drop dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing each cookie about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers will still look slightly underbaked.
Remove from the oven and allow the cookies to rest 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 5 days.
