Best Best Oatmeal Raisin Cookies Ever Recipes

BEST OATMEAL RAISIN COOKIES EVER

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Mix the flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon together in a large bowl.
• Beat the butter and sugar with an electric mixer in a large bowl until smooth. Add the eggs one at a time, allowing each egg to blend into the butter mixture before adding the next. Mix in the flour mixture until just incorporated. Fold in the oats and raisins; mixing just enough to evenly combine. Drop spoonfuls of the dough 2 inches apart onto ungreased baking sheets.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, 10 to 12 minutes. Cool in the pans for 10 minutes before removing to cool completely on a wire rack.

THE VERY BEST OATMEAL RAISIN COOKIES EVER!

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°.
• Whisk eggs in a small bowl, add 1/4 cup water, 1 tsp vanilla and raisins; mix well. VERY IMPORTANT let set on counter for at least 1 hour.
• In another bowl, combine crisco, and sugars, mix well.
• Gradually add dry ingredients.
• Blend in raisin mixture -- mix well.
• I use a cookie scoop, slightly less than 1/4 cup and place them on a greased cookie sheet. I slightly flatten them with the back of the scoop.
• Bake at 350° for 10-12 minutes. Do not flatten cookies a lot -- just a gentle tap.other wise they will flatten out too much.
• Baking note: please remember to reverse position of cookie sheets halfway through baking. DO NOT OVER BAKE. Cookies should be slightly golden brown around edges. Centers will look set-- let cool 1 minute on cookie sheet and then remove to wire rack to complete cool.
• I have used this recipe for over 30 years-- always outstanding-- most important thing to remove cookies from oven before they are finished-- residual heat in cookies will complete cooking-- and result in a cookie that is not dried out.
• I also add more walnuts, as I like lots of big nuts in my oatmeal cookies-- I have often left the egg, raisin mixture on counter, for a couple of hours while cleaning house and came back and baked marvelous cookies.

THE BEST OATMEAL RAISIN COOKIES EVER

Steps:

• 1. 1-2 hours before -- The key is to soak the raisins. This makes all the difference in the world. Beat eggs and vanilla together and then add the raisins, stir. Soak for an hour or two. Stir periodically.
• 2. Preheat oven to 350.
• 3. Cream butter and sugars with mixer.
• 4. In a separate bowl combine flour, salt, baking soda, cinammon, ginger & nutmeg. Stir the dry ingredients until well blended.
• 5. Add dry ingredients to creamed mixture and mix well.
• 6. Add in the egg & raisin mixture (I used my hands).
• 7. Add in the oatmeal and chocolate chips/nuts and combine well. *Note* whenever I use craisins instead, I don't add the optional chips or nuts, but feel free to experiment!
• 8. Form into balls on a lightly greased cookie sheet (I just lined mine with parchment paper). Bake 10-13 minutes until JUST turning golden brown on the edges. (Mine took 10 min on regular pans, 12 min on air bake pans)
• 9. Let cool on cookie sheet for 2-5 minutes or until firm enough to transfer to wire rack. Makes 2 1/2 dozen large cookies. I used a cookie scoop for smaller cookies, and it made exactly 56 cookies (just over 4 1/2 dozen)
