Ingredients

• 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
• 0.5 teaspoons baking soda
• 1 teaspoons ground cinnamon
• 0.5 teaspoons kosher salt
• 0.75 cups unsalted butter, softened
• 1 cups light brown sugar, packed
• 0.25 cups granulated sugar
• 2 large eggs
• 1.5 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
• 3 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
• 1 cups raisins or chocolate chips (optional)

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt until well combined. Set aside.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, use a hand or stand mixer to cream the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 4

Add the eggs one at a time to the butter and sugar mixture, beating well after each addition. Mix in the vanilla extract.

Step 5

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed just until combined.

Step 6

Stir in the rolled oats by hand with a wooden spoon or spatula until fully incorporated. If using raisins or chocolate chips, fold them in at this stage.

Step 7

Use a large cookie scoop or a 1/4-cup measuring cup to drop mounds of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 3 inches of space between each cookie to allow for spreading.

Step 8

Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 13-15 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are just set. Do not overbake.

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

Enjoy your giant oatmeal drop cookies with a glass of milk or a hot cup of coffee!
