How to Make Chewy Oatmeal Raisin Pecan Cookies

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or aluminum foil.
  2. Optional: Soak 1 cup raisins in warm water for at least 30 minutes to plump them up.
  3. In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon baking powder, ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon, and ½ teaspoon salt.
  4. In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, ¾ cup packed light brown sugar, and ¾ cup granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  5. Beat in ½ cup honey, 2 large eggs, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until well combined.
  6. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined.
  7. Stir in 3 cups rolled oats, 1 cup raisins (soaked or unsoaked), and 1 cup pecan halves.
  8. Drop rounded tablespoons of cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving 2 inches between each cookie.
  9. Gently flatten the mounds slightly for thicker, chewier cookies, or flatten more for thinner cookies.
  10. Bake for 11-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.
  11. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 3-5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  12. Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
