Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, use a hand mixer or stand mixer to cream together the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the creamed mixture and mix until fully combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, ground cinnamon, and ground nutmeg.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Fold in the rolled oats, and if desired, stir in the chopped walnuts and raisins.
Using a tablespoon or small cookie scoop, drop dough balls onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers look set.
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve and enjoy your Spiced Oatmeal Crispies! Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
