These soft oatmeal raisin cookies are made with hearty oats, sweet plump raisins and buttery brown sugar with warm cinnamon. Their classic chewy, tender texture is simply the best.
In a small bowl soak the raisins in boiling water for 15 minutes then drain well.
Pre-heat the oven to 375℉ (190℃) and line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl whisk together flour, salt, baking soda and cinnamon.
In a large bowl cream butter and brown sugar, add the egg and beat until fluffy. Add oats, mix well and let sit for 5 minutes. Add the flour mix in the wet mix and combine, then add the raisins.
Using a cookie scoop make balls and place on the prepared baking sheets 2 inches apart. Flatten the tops with a fork and bake approximately 10-12 minutes or until golden. Place the baking sheet on a cooling rack for 10 minutes, then transfer the cookies directly onto the rack to finish cooling down. Serve and Enjoy!
