Ingredients
- 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup packed light brown sugar
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 3 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
- 1 cup raisins
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, beat butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
- Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Gradually add to butter mixture, mixing until just combined.
- Stir in oats and raisins until evenly distributed.
- Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto prepared baking sheets, spacing about 2 inches apart.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, until edges are golden and centers are set but still soft.
- Cool on baking sheets for 5 minutes, then transfer to wire racks to cool completely.
Tips
- For extra chewy cookies, chill the dough for 30 minutes before baking.
- Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week.
- Add 1/2 cup chopped walnuts or pecans for extra crunch.
