Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 1 cup brown sugar, packed
- 0.5 cup granulated sugar
- 2 count large eggs
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 3 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
- 1 cup raisins
- 0.5 cup chopped walnuts (optional)
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, beat the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar together using a hand mixer or stand mixer until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Step 3
Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Then mix in the vanilla extract.
Step 4
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and salt.
Step 5
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined.
Step 6
Fold in the rolled oats, raisins, and chopped walnuts (if using) with a wooden spoon or spatula.
Step 7
Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden but the centers still look slightly undercooked.
Step 9
Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 10
Serve and enjoy these chewy, flavorful cookies with a glass of cold milk or a warm cup of coffee!
