Time 32m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/2 cup butter, salted ((softened, at room temperature))
1 1/4 cups sugar
2 large eggs ((beaten, at room temperature))
6 Tbsp molasses ((or more, be generous for chewier cookies))
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
2 1/2 cups old fashioned oats
1 cup raisins ((substitute dried cranberries or cherries, if desired - you can also add chopped walnuts or chocolate chips))

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and line your baking sheet(s) with parchment paper.
  • In a large mixing bowl, or the bowl of your stand mixer, cream the (softened, room temperature) butter and sugar together until smooth.
  • Add wet ingredients (eggs (beaten, room temperature) and molasses). Stir, then add salt, baking soda, baking powder, and cinnamon. Combine thoroughly.
  • Add flour, stir in gently to wet mixture. Add old fashioned oats and raisins, then stir until all ingredients are combined into a sticky cookie dough.
  • Using a tablespoon, portion out the dough into 1-1 1/2 inch dough balls and place cookies onto baking sheet approximately 2 inches apart to allow the cookies room to spread during baking.
  • Bake cookies at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 12-15 minutes, or until cookies are browned on the edges (the baked cookies are lighter brown in appearance than the dough).
  • Remove cookies from the oven and allow them to set up on the cookie sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack. Cool for an additional 10 minutes before serving.

1 teaspoon fine salt
1 1/4 cups granulated sugar
1/2 cup unrefined coconut oil
