How to Make Soft Chewy Oatmeal Raisin Cookies

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together the butter and both sugars until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  6. Stir in the oats and raisins.
  7. Drop by rounded tablespoons onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving some space between each cookie. For larger cookies, use larger spoonfuls of dough.
  8. Bake for 12-15 minutes for smaller cookies, or 15-18 minutes for larger cookies, or until the edges are golden brown. Baking time will depend on the size of your cookies.
  9. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy!
