Ingredients

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 and 1/2 cups Old Fashioned Oats
  • 1 and 1/3 cups All-Purpose Flour
  • 1 tsp Baking Soda
  • 1 tsp Ground Cinnamon
  • ½ tsp Salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 cup Unsalted Butter
  • 1 cup Brown Sugar
  • ¼ cup Granulated Sugar
  • 2 large Eggs
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Essence
  • ½ cup Black Raisins
  • ½ cup Walnuts Chopped

Instructions

Preheat The Oven

  • Preheat your oven to 190 degrees Celsius or 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper to prevent the cookies from sticking.

Combine Dry Ingredients

  • Grab a mixing bowl and combine flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt in it.
  • Mix the dry ingredients with a whisk and set them aside.

Add Wet Ingredients

  • In a separate bowl, add the butter. Using a stand mixer, beat it for about 30 seconds.
  • Add brown sugar and granulated sugar to the mix and beat on the medium speed of an electric mixer until creamy.
  • Add the eggs, one at a time, and beat until combined.
  • Stir in vanilla essence and beat again so the mixture becomes smooth and creamy.

Mix and Chill

  • Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients and fold it in gently. Scrape the sides and bottom of the bowl so the batter is mixed properly.
  • Stir in the oats, black raisins, and walnuts and mix them evenly in the batter.
  • Cover the dough and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes and up to 3 days.

Bake, Cool, and Enjoy!

  • Once chilled, scoop the dough and use a cookie scoop to portion it onto a cookie sheet.
  • Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes.
  • Let them cool on a cookie sheet for 5 minutes and then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • Enjoy the warm, chewy oatmeal cookies with a glass of milk or your favorite hot beverage!
