Ingredients
Scale
- 3 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon nutmeg
- ¾ teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 ½ cups butter, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup brown sugar, packed
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 eggs
- 1 ½ cups raisins
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
- In a large bowl, beat the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar with an electric mixer on high until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes. Mix in the eggs and vanilla extract.
- Gradually add the flour mixture to the butter mixture while mixing on low speed. Once combined, fold in the oats and raisins.
- Use a cookie scoop to form 1 ½-inch balls of dough and place them 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.
- Bake for 12-14 minutes, or until the cookies are slightly golden around the edges. Allow to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
