Chewy Raisin Oatmeal Cookies Food

OATMEAL RAISIN COOKIE (SOFT & CHEWY)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 180°C/350°F (160°C fan). Adjust oven racks to middle and low position, ensuring you have 4"/10cm between each rack. Line 2 trays with parchment/baking paper.
• Optional: Soak raisins in boiled water for 10 minutes. Drain then pat dry. (This makes them plumper).
• Sift dry ingredients: Sift flour, salt, baking powder and cinnamon into a bowl.
• Cream butter and sugar: Using a stand mixer or electric mixer, beat butter until creamy. Then beat in sugar until fluffy - about 2 - 3 minutes.
• Add eggs: Beat in eggs one at a time until incorporated.
• Mix in flour: Use a wooden spoon to stir the flour mixture in.
• Stir in oats and raisins: Stir in oats and raisins - this requires a bit of effort as the dough gets firm!
• Roll and flatten balls: Form 4cm / 1.6" balls (~18) and place onto baking trays 4"/10cm apart. I use an ice cream scoop. Then press down to slighty flatten into a thick disc shape.
• Bake for 11 minutes. Then swap the trays between the shelves AND turn the trays around. Bake for a further 11 - 14 minutes, or until cookies are golden on the edges and LIGHT golden on the surface.
• Cool on the trays for 5 minutes before transferring to cooling rack. Cool for 30 minutes before serving.

THICK, CHEWY OATMEAL RAISIN COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
• In a large bowl, cream together the butter, brown sugar, egg and vanilla until smooth. In a separate bowl, whisk the flour, baking soda, cinnamon and salt together. Stir this into the butter/sugar mixture. Stir in the oats, raisins and walnuts, if using them.
• At this point you can either chill the dough for a bit in the fridge and then scoop it, or scoop the cookies onto a sheet and then chill the whole tray before baking them. You could also bake them right away, if you're impatient, but I do find that they end up slighly less thick.
• The cookies should be two inches apart on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake them for 10 to 12 minutes (your baking time will vary, depending on your oven and how cold the cookies were going in), taking them out when golden at the edges but still a little undercooked-looking on top. Let them sit on the hot baking sheet for five minutes before transferring them to a rack to cool.

Slowly mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients and mix well.
• Scoop 2 tablespoons of dough per cookie and portion on the prepared baking sheets, spacing them 2 inches apart. Bake in batches if necessary. Bake just until the edges start to brown, 12 to 14 minutes (don't overbake; the cookies may look slightly underdone when removing from the oven). Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to fully cool.
• The cookies will keep in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
