The other day I tried one of these cookies and had to make them.
So glad I did.
I love the recipe, and to be honest… I usually hate Oatmeal Raisin cookies.
This recipe is a keeper!!
Ingredients
- 2 3/4 cups all purpose flour
- 1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup sugar
- 2 cups light brown sugar packed
- 4 sticks unsalted butter room temperature
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 3 large eggs
- 5 cups rolled oats
- 1 cup raisins
- maldon salt for topping cookies
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F. Line cookie sheets with parchment paper.
- Sift flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt into a bowl and set aside.
- In a stand mixer use a paddle attachment to cream together the sugars and butters with vanilla on medium speed until smooth and a light texture, approx. 2 minutes.
- Add in the eggs one at a time.
- Add the dry ingredients on low speed. Then fold in the oats and raisins.
- Chill dough for 10-15 minutes.
- Divide the dough into four and roll each section into parchment paper to make a foot long log.
- Refrigerate until firm enough to cut, around 30 minutes.
- Slice logs into cookies, sprinkle with a tiny pinch of Maldon salt and bake 2 inches apart.
- Bake 12-15 minutes.
- Cool cookies on wire rack.
