Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.75 cup unsalted butter
- 1 cup brown sugar, packed
- 0.5 cup granulated sugar
- 2 count large eggs
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 3 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
- 1 cup raisins
- 0.75 cup chopped walnuts
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, use a hand or stand mixer to cream together the unsalted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. 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 fully incorporated.
Stir in the rolled oats, raisins, and chopped walnuts until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers may still look slightly underbaked, but they will firm up as they cool.
Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet 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 a week.
