Equipment
- Mixing bowl
- Electric mixer or whisk
- Baking sheet
- Parchment paper
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter softened
- 1 cup brown sugar packed
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 3 cups Quaker Oats old-fashioned or quick oats
- 1 cup raisins or chocolate chips optional
Instructions
Preheat the Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Cream the Butter and Sugars:
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar together until light and creamy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the Wet Ingredients:
- Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
Mix the Dry Ingredients:
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Add the Oats and Raisins/Chocolate Chips:
- Stir in the Quaker Oats and raisins or chocolate chips (if using) until evenly incorporated.
Scoop the Dough:
- Drop rounded tablespoons of cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake the Cookies:
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden but the centers are still soft.
- Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 2 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
You can substitute raisins with other mix-ins like nuts, dried cranberries, or white chocolate chips.
