Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup (226g) unsalted butter, softened to room temperature
- 1 cup (200g) light or dark brown sugar
- 1/3 cup (66g) granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 2 cups (240g) all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 3/4 teaspoon salt
- 3 cups (270g) old-fashioned rolled oats
- 1 1/2 cups (225g) raisins
Instructions
- Cream together the unsalted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar using a mixer until smooth, about 2 minutes.
- Add eggs and vanilla extract, mixing on high until combined, about 1 minute. Scrape down the bowl and mix again if necessary.
- In another bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Combine with the wet ingredients and mix on low.
- Stir in rolled oats and raisins, mixing on low speed. Chill the dough in the refrigerator for 30-60 minutes.
- Preheat your oven to 350°F and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone mats.
- Scoop around 1.5 tablespoons of dough for each cookie and place 2 inches apart on the sheets.
- Bake for 11-13 minutes until golden brown, allowing them to set on the baking sheet for 3-5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
Notes
Chilling the dough helps cookies maintain their shape while baking.
If you prefer chewier cookies, bake for the shorter time.
Feel free to substitute chocolate chips for raisins for a different twist.
