Skinny Oatmeal Raisin Cookies Food

SKINNY OATMEAL PEANUT BUTTER BREAKFAST COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Lightly coat two cookie sheets with cooking spray; set aside. In a large bowl, stir together banana, peanut butter, honey, and vanilla. In a small bowl, combine oats, flour, milk powder, cinnamon, and baking soda. Stir the oat mixture into the banana mixture until combined. Stir in dried cranberries.
• Using a 1/4-cup measure, drop mounds of dough 3 inches apart on prepared cookie sheets. With a thin metal or small plastic spatula dipped in water, flatten and spread each mound of dough to a 2 3/4-inch round, about 1/2 inch thick.
• Bake, one sheet at a time, for 14 to 16 minutes or until browned. Transfer to wire racks to cool completely. Store in an airtight container or resealable plastic bag for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 2 months; thaw before serving.

SKINNY OATMEAL CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silpat.
• Pull out 2 medium bowls, one for dry ingredients, one for wet.
• In one bowl, whisk together the oats, flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.
• Melt the butter in the other bowl. You don't have to melt it all the way, if there are a couple lumps it's okay. Let cool slightly.
• Whisk in the vanilla, then the egg. Whisk in the honey.
• Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and use a wooden spoon to stir until it has just come together (don't overdo it).
• Save out about half of the chocolate chips. Use a sharp knife to roughly chop the remaining chocolate, then fold it into the dough.
• Refrigerate the dough for about 30 minutes, or freeze for about 15 minutes.
• Use your hands to shape the dough into roughly 15 cookies (or 12 if you eat a lot of dough like me...)
• Place on the prepared baking sheet about 2 inches apart.
• Bake in the preheated oven for about 12-13 minutes, or until they have just started to brown on the edges.
• Once you remove them from the oven, immediately press the remaining chocolate chips into the tops of the cookies.
• Let cool on the pan for a few minutes before removing to a cooling rack.
• Drink with lots of milk!

THE VERY BEST OATMEAL RAISIN COOKIES (SOFT AND CHEWY)

Steps:

• Start by preparing your raisins and walnuts, if you plan to add nuts. Bring a small pot of water to a boil. Add 1 and 1/2 cup raisins to a small bowl. Pour the boiling water over the raisins. Set aside to plump (at least 10-15 minutes.)
• In a small pan, add 1/2 cup walnuts and set over medium heat. Stir frequently for 3-5 minutes, until the walnuts are light brown and fragrant. Don't burn them! Nuts are so easy to burn. Set side to cool.
• In a large bowl or stand mixer, beat the butter until is is soft and creamy.
• Add the brown sugar and granulated sugar and beat together. Scrape the bottom and sides of the bowl and beat for another 2-3 minutes, until fluffy.
• Add 2 eggs, 2 teaspoons vanilla, and 1 tablespoon molasses. Beat well until incorporated, scraping the sides and bottom.
• Add 2 and 1/2 cups flour (spooned and leveled!) but don't mix it in yet.
• On top of the flour in the bowl, add 1 and 1/2 teaspoons baking soda, 1 teaspoon kosher salt, 1 and 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon, and 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg. Add in a dash of cardamom, but only if you already know you like cardamom. Stir it into the flour with a small spoon.
• Use the beaters to stir the flour into the dough, but not all the way. Stop when the dough is still pretty white from the flour. Scrape down the edges.
• Add 1 cup quick oats, 1 cup old fashioned oats, and the 1/2 cup of toasted walnuts, if you're using them.
• Beat just until the flour streaks are gone. Make sure to scrape the sides and bottom of the bowl to make sure it has all been mixed properly, but do not over mix (or you will get tough cookies).
• Drain the raisins through a strainer. Lay out a paper towel on the counter and pour the raisins on top to dry them out a bit. Set aside 1/4 or 1/2 cup raisins to press into the top of the baked cookies, if you want.
• Use a wooden spoon to stir the raisins into the dough. If they are still a little wet, they may not mix in very well. Just do your best to get them incorporated.
• Cover the dough and refrigerate for 2 hours or up to 48 hours. If you are in a big hurry, you can shape the dough into balls right away, set them on a plate, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for 30 minutes before baking (they will chill faster if they are already shaped into balls).
• When you are ready to bake, preheat your oven to 350 degrees F.
• Line a few baking sheets with silicone baking mats or parchment paper.
• Use a 2 inch cookie scoop (< this is the one I have) to shape the cookie dough, or just use your hands. Your cookie dough balls should be about 2 inches across, or a little bigger than a golf ball.
• Place the cookie dough on the prepared baking sheets with about 2 inches in between each cookie. I was able to fit 12 on a half sheet baking pan.
• Bake at 350 for 11-12 minutes. The cookies should be firm on the edges and slightly golden. They should not be too shiny. A little bit of shine is okay right in the center, but not much. If the whole top of the cookie is still shiny, leave it in for 2-3 more minutes.
• Remove the pan from the oven.
• For an extra thick cookie: Immediately after you take them out of the oven (seriously, don't wait) use two spoons to gently push each cookie together. I just used two regular spoons, the kind you eat cereal with. Push the cookie together so that it comes up a bit in the middle. That's how you're going to get a soft, thick center. If you wait even just a minute after taking them out of the oven, the brown edges will start to crisp up, and you won't be able to shape the cookies. Work your spoons all the way around the edges so that your cookie is a nice circle shape. Work quickly to shape all the cookies before they crisp on the edges. (See photos of this process on my recipe for 30 minute Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies.)
• Press extra raisins into the top of each cookie, if desired. (You can use ones that you plumped or ones straight from the bag.)
• Remove to a wire rack and let cool completely. But not before eating at least one!
• Store covered on the counter.
