Ingredients

  • ½ cup 4 ounces butter, softened
  • cup light brown sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract
  • ¾ cup all-purpose flour
  • ½ tsp baking soda
  • ½ tsp ground cinnamon
  • ¼ tsp kosher salt
  • 1 ½ cups rolled oats
  • ¾ cup raisins
  • ¼ cup walnuts chopped

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 f degrees (177 c)
  • In a large bowl, cream together the butter, brown sugar, egg and vanilla until smooth using an electric mixer.
  • In a separate small bowl, whisk the flour, baking soda, cinnamon and salt together.
  • Add the dry mixture into the butter/sugar mixture and with the electric mixer cream little bit more until mixed well.
  • Using a spatula, fold in the oats, raisins and walnuts and mix well.
  • Chill the dough covered  in the fridge for about two hours prior to baking.
  • Scoop 2 tbsp of dough on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Space the dough about 2 inches apart.
  • Bake for about 10-12 minutes (start checking at the 10 minute mark since all ovens are different). The cookies are done when the edges are golden but the center looks a little undercooked.
  • Remove from oven and keep on baking sheet for about 5 minutes prior to transferring them to a cooling rack.

Notes

  • To store place in an airtight container or a ziplock bag with a small piece of bread. The bread will absorb the moisture and will keep the cookies fresh longer. Store for up to 5 days. 
  • Cookie dough can be frozen for up to 3 months. Roll into balls prior to freezing for easy thawing.
