Oatmeal Raisin Cookies Recipe
Description
This Oatmeal Raisin Cookies Recipe uses rolled oats combined with a spiced, baked dough made from flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, salt, butter, brown and granulated sugars, egg, and vanilla. Raisins soaked briefly in warm water are added to plump them, alongside semisweet chocolate chips for additional sweetness. The dough thickly binds all ingredients.
The cookies are portioned into evenly sized balls, slightly flattened, and baked at 350˚F until the edges show a golden hue, typically 12 to 14 minutes. This yields cookies with a tender, chewy texture inside and gentle crispness on the outside, carrying warm cinnamon-spiced flavor with bursts of sweet raisins and chocolate.
Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp salt fine sea salt
- 8 Tbsp butter at room temperature, unsalted
- 1/2 cup light brown sugar packed
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1 egg at room temperature, large
- 1 tsp vanilla extract pure
- 2 cups rolled oats old fashioned
- 1 cup raisins
- 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Prep: Preheat the oven to 350˚F with a rack in the center of the oven. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside. Set raisins in a bowl of warm water and soak for 15 minutes then drain well and pat dry with paper towels.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together dry ingredients: flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.
- In a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream together butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar on medium-high speed until light and fluffy (2 minutes). Beat in egg and vanilla, mixing to fully incorporate. With the mixer on, gradually beat in flour mixture, mixing until just combined.
- Add oats, raisins, and chocolate and mix until just incorporated. The dough will be thick.
- Divide into 16 (2-inch diameter) dough balls (use a 3-Tbsp or 2 oz cookie scoop for even portioned cookies). Flatten each ball slightly with the back of a measuring cup.
- Bake one baking sheet at a time for 12-14 minutes or until edges are slightly golden then remove from the oven right away. Do not over-bake. Cool in the pan for 5 minutes then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
