Ingredients
Method
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and beat the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar together until pale and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
- Beat in the eggs one at a time, then mix in the vanilla extract until smooth.
- Whisk the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt together, then stir into the wet mixture until just combined.
- Fold in the oats and raisins by hand until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
- Scoop into 2-tablespoon mounds on a parchment-lined sheet and bake for 10 to 12 minutes, until the edges are golden.
Notes
This dough is on the thick side, which is normal for oatmeal cookies, so don't add extra liquid to loosen it. If you like a chewier cookie, pull them from the oven right when the edges turn golden and the centers still look a bit soft, since they'll continue to firm up as they cool on the pan.
