Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350˚F. Line two rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. Add softened butter, brown sugar and granulated sugar to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. Set to medium speed and mix for 3 to 4 minutes, or until light and fluffy.
  3. Scrape down the sides of the bowl, then add the egg and vanilla and mix for 1-2 minutes.
  4. Add flour, cinnamon, baking soda and salt to the bowl and mix at low speed for 30 seconds, just until no streaks of flour remain.
  5. Add oats and raisins and mix at low speed for about 1 minute, until evenly distributed.
  6. Using a 1.5 tablespoon-size spring loaded cookie scoop, scoop 12 cookies on each prepared baking sheet about 3 inches apart. Bake for about 10-12 minutes, or until the cookies are golden brown.
  7. Let cool on the pans for 5 minutes, then transfer to a cooling rack until completely cool.

Notes

  • Storage: Store any leftovers in an airtight container. They will last about 7 days in the fridge or on the countertop.
  • Freezing Instructions: To freeze the cookies, scoop and place them on a baking sheet in the freezer until very cold and solid, about 20 minutes. Then transfer to a freezer-safe plastic bag. Freeze for up to 1 month for best taste. You can freeze longer and the dough won't spoil, but the flavor will lose its freshness.
  • Substitutes: For best results, follow the recipe as is. However here are some common substitutes that would work well in this recipe.
  • Original Recipe
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour½ teaspoon baking soda½ teaspoon baking powder½ teaspoon salt½ teaspoon cinnamon½ cup butter¾ cup dark brown sugar packed1 large egg1 large egg yolk2 teaspoon vanilla extract1½ cups rolled oats¾ cup raisins¼ cup chocolate chipsInstructionsPreheat the oven to 350°F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.Combine flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon in a large bowl. In a separate bowl, whisk together the melted butter, sugar, whole egg, egg yolk, and vanilla, until well combined.Stir the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir in the oats, raisins, and chocolate chips, folding into a tight batter. Set the dough aside for 20 minutes to allow them to set.Use a spring-loaded cookie scoop to scoop into 16 balls about 2 tablespoons each, and roll lightly in barely damp hands to make them round. Spread out on the prepared baking sheets and bake until puffed and golden, 10 to 11 minutes (they will continue to bake on the pans as they cool). Let cool on the pans for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • To make them gluten-free, use 1 1/4 cup gluten-free flour mix like Bob's Red Mill. However I have not tested them with just almond flour or just coconut flour.
