Ingredients

• 1 cup Unsalted butter, at room temperature
• 1 cup Light brown sugar, packed
• 0.5 cup Granulated sugar
• 2 Large eggs
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon Baking soda
• 1 teaspoon Cinnamon, ground
• 0.25 teaspoon Nutmeg, ground
• 0.25 teaspoon Cloves, ground
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 3 cups Old-fashioned rolled oats
• 1 cup Raisins

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, cream together the unsalted butter, light brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 3

Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and salt.

Step 5

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined.

Step 6

Fold in the old-fashioned rolled oats and raisins, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.

Step 7

Using a tablespoon or small cookie scoop, drop rounded spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers look slightly underbaked. This helps ensure a chewy texture.

Step 9

Remove the baking sheets from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 10

Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
