Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup light brown sugar, packed
- 0.5 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 1.75 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1.5 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 3 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
- 1 cup raisins
- 0.5 cup chopped walnuts (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter, light brown sugar, and granulated sugar together until creamy and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes using a hand or stand mixer.
Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt until evenly combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Avoid overmixing.
Fold in the oats, raisins, and chopped walnuts (if using) using a spatula or wooden spoon until evenly distributed.
Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded balls of dough (about 2 tablespoons each) onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart to allow for spreading.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are slightly golden but the centers still appear soft. Do not overbake.
Remove the baking sheets from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to wire racks to cool completely.
Serve immediately or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days. Enjoy!
