Raisin Date Oatmeal Cookies Recipes

Steps:

• Arrange an oven rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Whisk together the flour, salt, baking soda and cinnamon in a small bowl until combined. Beat the brown sugar and butter in a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add the honey, vanilla, egg and 1 tablespoon warm water and beat on high speed until creamy, scraping the sides and bottom of the bowl, about 3 minutes more. Add the dry ingredients and mix on low speed, scraping the bowl as needed, until completely combined. Add the oats and beat on low speed until combined. Fold in the raisins until evenly distributed. Arrange twelve 1-ounce scoops (2-tablespoon portions) of cookie dough on the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches between each. Bake until the cookies are lightly golden around the edges, 15 to 20 minutes. Cool on the sheet for 10 minutes, and then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Let the baking sheet cool, and then repeat with the remaining cookie dough.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• In large bowl, cream together butter, white sugar, and brown sugar until smooth. Beat in the eggs and vanilla until fluffy. Stir together flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Gradually beat into butter mixture. Stir in oats and raisins. Drop by teaspoonfuls onto ungreased cookie sheets.
• Bake 8 to 10 minutes in the preheated oven, or until golden brown. Cool slightly, remove from sheet to wire rack. Cool completely.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Line 2 baking sheets with foil; butter foil. Blend first 5 ingredients in medium bowl.
• Using electric mixer, beat butter, vegetable shortening, and both sugars in large bowl until fluffy. Beat in honey, eggs, and vanilla. Gradually beat in flour mixture. Stir in oats, raisins, dates, and walnuts. Drop batter by tablespoonfuls onto prepared sheets, spacing mounds 2 inches apart. Flatten cookies slightly.
• Bake cookies until golden brown, about 10 minutes. Cool completely on sheets. (Can be made 2 days ahead. Store airtight at room temperature.)

Steps:

• In a large mixing bowl, cream together well the butter and brown and white sugar. Add the eggs and beat about 3 minutes. Add the vanilla and spices and blend well. Add the milk to the batter. Sift together the flour, baking powder and baking soda and add one-third of this dry mixture at a time to the wet mixture blending well. Add the oats and work into the batter. Finally, add the nuts, dates, and raisins. Using a spring-form scoop, dollop the batter on to a parchment-lined cookie sheet. Do not crowd cookies giving about 2-3" space between each. Bake in preheated 350°F oven about 10 minutes. Repeat with all the batter. Let cool and eat. (Note: These also make a cute mini-muffin using cupcake liners if you want.)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Beat butter, sugars, eggs, molasses and vanilla together until well combined.
• Sift together dry ingredients.
• Add to butter mixture and combine thoroughly.
• Stir in oats, raisins and dates.
• Drop onto well greased cookie sheets.
• Bake for 12-15 minutes, until edges are browned and centers are somewhat firm.
• Cool a few minutes on the cookie sheet before removing. These firm up a bit as they cool. This can be a bit tricky. Remove them too soon and they mush together, too late and the edges may stick to the cookie sheet.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350.
• Cream sugars, oil, egg, and vanilla in large mixing bowl.
• Add water and beat on low speed until well mixed.
• Stir in flour, baking soda, and salt.
• Fold in oatmeal, raisins and dates.
• Stir until blended.
• Drop dough by spoonfuls onto a baking sheet sprayed with Pam.
• Flatten slightly with a fork.
• Bake 12 minutes or until golden brown.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Place the pecans on a sheet pan and bake for 5 minutes, until crisp. Set aside to cool. Chop very coarsely.
• In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar together on medium-high speed until light and fluffy. With the mixer on low, add the eggs, one at a time, and the vanilla.
• Sift the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt together into a medium bowl. With the mixer on low, slowly add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture. Add the oats, raisins, and pecans and mix just until combined.
• Using a small ice-cream scoop or a tablespoon, drop 2-inch mounds of dough onto sheet pans lined with parchment paper. Flatten slightly with a damp hand. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, until lightly browned. Transfer the cookies to a baking rack and cool completely.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375°F. Spray cookie sheets with cooking spray. In large bowl, combine granulated sugar, brown sugar and butter; beat until light and fluffy. Add vanilla and egg; blend well. Add flour, baking soda, cinnamon and salt; mix well. Stir in oats, raisins and nuts.
• Drop dough by rounded teaspoonfuls 2 inches apart onto sprayed cookie sheets.
• Bake at 375°F. for 7 to 10 minutes or until edges are light golden brown. Cool 1 minute; remove from cookie sheets.
