OATMEAL RAISIN COOKIES

 

This is a flexible recipe.  You can use chocolate chips instead of raisins.  You can also add nuts (like chopped pecans).  While these additions can be delicious, I like to enjoy each one separately.

Makes 40 small cookies

 


1 egg
½ cup butter (room temperature)
½ cup brown sugar + 1/4 cup white sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 ½ cups rolled oats
½ teaspoon cinnamon
½ teaspoon baking soda
¼ teaspoon salt
1 cup raisins
1 cup flour

 

  • In a large bowl, mix together flour, salt, cinnamon, baking soda and set aside
  • Cream together butter and sugars.  Add egg and vanilla extract and mix until fully combined
  • Slowly add the flour mix.  Continue to mix until all combined
  • Add in oatmeal and raisins with a spatula and make sure all is blended
  • Form a big “ball”.  Cover and refrigerate at least 30 minutes
  • Preheat oven to 350
  • Use a lined pan with cooking paper
  • Take 1 tablespoon of the cookie dough and form a small “ball” and place on the pan. 
  • Once all the dough is done, slightly flatten using a fork
  • Bake 10-12 minutes until edges of the cookies are slightly browned
  • Let it cool
