Ingredients

• 1 cup unsalted butter
• 1 cup brown sugar
• 0.5 cup granulated sugar
• 2 pieces large eggs
• 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
• 1.75 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 3 cups old-fashioned oats
• 1 cup raisins or chocolate chips (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. This should take about 2–3 minutes using an electric mixer on medium speed.

Step 3

Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Then, mix in the vanilla extract.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt.

Step 5

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing on low speed until just combined. Avoid overmixing.

Step 6

Stir in the oats and optional raisins or chocolate chips using a spatula or wooden spoon until evenly distributed throughout the dough.

Step 7

Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart to allow for spreading.

Step 8

Bake each batch in the preheated oven for 10–12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers may still look slightly underbaked; this will ensure a chewy texture.

Step 9

Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to wire racks to cool completely.

Step 10

Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
