Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar together until creamy and smooth.

Step 5

Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until combined.

Step 6

Stir in the rolled oats, raisins, and chopped walnuts (if using) until fully incorporated.

Step 7

Using a large spoon or cookie scoop, drop heaping tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden but the centers still look slightly underbaked.

Step 9

Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 10

Serve and enjoy your big, fat oatmeal raisin cookies!
