Instructions:
Prepare the Dry Ingredients: In a small bowl, combine the flour, oats, cinnamon, baking soda, salt, and cornstarch. Mix well and set aside.
Cream the Butter & Sugars: In a medium bowl, beat the softened butter with the brown and white sugars until the mixture is light and fluffy. Add the egg and mix until fully blended.
Combine Mixtures: Slowly incorporate the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, stirring with a spatula or your hands until a cohesive dough forms.
Add the Mix-Ins: Carefully fold in the raisins, walnuts, and chocolate chips, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Shape the Cookies: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Take portions of dough (approximately the size of a tennis ball), roll them into balls, and place them on the baking sheet, leaving 4-5 cm of space between each. Gently flatten each ball.
Bake: Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
Cool & Serve: Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack. Enjoy them warm or store them in an airtight container for later enjoyment!
3 Important Tips for Perfect Oatmeal Cookies:
Use Room Temperature Butter: Ensure the butter is softened to room temperature for a smooth dough, which helps the cookies bake evenly and stay soft.
Chill the Dough: Chill the dough for about 30 minutes before baking. This prevents the cookies from spreading too much and helps them maintain a nice chewy texture.
Don’t Overbake: Keep a close eye on the cookies and remove them when the edges just start to brown. This ensures a soft, chewy interior while avoiding crisp, overbaked cookies.
These delicious oatmeal cookies offer the perfect blend of flavors and textures, making them a great choice for any occasion.
With the sweetness of raisins, walnuts, and rich chocolate chips, every bite is a delightful treat. Enjoy them fresh out of the oven or save some for later—they stay soft and delicious.
