How to Make 5 Minute Oatmeal Raisin Cookie Treat

  1. Combine 1/2 cup rolled oats, 1/4 cup packed brown sugar, 1/4 cup raisins, 1 tablespoon melted butter, 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt in a microwave-safe bowl.
  2. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly distributed.

  4. Let cool slightly before enjoying. Optional: Add a sprinkle of cinnamon or chopped nuts for extra flavor.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
