  • Total Time: 20 min
  • Yield: 12 servings 1x

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1/2 cup (113 grams) butter, softened
  • 1 large egg, room temperature
  • 1/2 cup (100 grams) packed brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1 cup (136 grams) all purpose flour
  • 1 cup (90 grams) Old Fashioned Oats
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup (70 grams) raisins (or chocolate chips)

Instructions

  1.  Preheat oven to  350 F
  2. In a large mixing bowl cream butter and sugar: use a hand or stand mixer to cream the softened butter with sugar until smooth, about 2 minutes on medium speed. Add egg and vanilla then mix on high for about 1 minute until incorporated. In a separate bowl combine dry ingredients: flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt stir to combine. Pour dry ingredients into the wet ingredients. Combine together on low speed. Add the extras: Beat in the oats and raisins     (or chocolate chips) on low speed. Dough will be a little thick and sticky.
  3. Refrigerate the cookie dough for 30-60 minutes and up to 24 hours. 
  4. Roll cookie dough into balls and place on a lined baking sheet (use parchment paper). Roll balls of dough (about 2 !/2 tablespoons of dough per cookie) and place 2 inches apart on the baking sheets. I use a soup spoon or a cookie medium size scoop. 
  5.  Bake the cookies at 350°F (177°C) for 10-13 minutes until lightly browned. The cookies might look under-baked, but they will continue to set as they cool. This is the secret to a soft and chewy oatmeal raisin cookie!

Notes

- Freeze up to 1 one month

- Store dough in fridge up to 5 days before baking
