Equipment
- Mixing bowl
- oven
- cookie sheets
Ingredients
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 3/4 Cup packed brown sugar
- 1/2 tsp salt optional
- 2 Eggs
- 1 Cup raisins
- 1/2 Cup granulated sugar
- 1 tsp Baking Soda
- 1/2 Cup plus 6 tbsp softened butter
- 1 1/2 Cups all-purpose flour
- 3 Cups Quaker Oats quick or old fashioned, uncooked
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
Instructions
Step 1:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
Step 2:
- Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla.
Step 3:
- In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Gradually add this dry mixture to the creamed butter and sugar mixture, mixing well after each addition.
Step 4:
- Stir in the oats and raisins until evenly distributed throughout the cookie dough.
Step 5:
- Drop dough by rounded tablespoons onto ungreased cookie sheets, leaving enough space between each cookie for them to spread while baking.
Step 6:
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to wire racks to cool completely.
Notes
– Softened Butter: Make sure your butter is softened to room temperature before starting the recipe. This will ensure that it mixes easily with the other ingredients and helps create a tender cookie crumb.
– Quaker Oats: Whether you choose quick oats or old-fashioned oats, the key is to use uncooked oats in this recipe. The oats add texture and heartiness to the cookies, making them a satisfying treat for any occasion.
– Raisins: While the original recipe calls for raisins, feel free to experiment with other mix-ins such as chocolate chips, chopped nuts, or dried cranberries for a different flavor profile.
