Trout Dale Oatmeal Raisin Cookies Recipes

Steps:

• Pan preparation:
• Line the cookie sheets with baking parchment or nonstick mats or coat with butter or nonstick vegetable spray.
• Cookies:
• Divide oven into thirds and preheat to 350°F.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt and cinnamon.
• In a large bowl, using a sturdy spoon, or in the bowl of an electric mixer, preferably with a paddle attachment, beat the butter until soft and creamy, then beat in both sugars. Scrape down the bowl and beater, if using, and beat until smooth. Beat in the eggs and vanilla and scrape down the bowl again.
• Stirring slowly, or with the mixer on the lowest speed, gradually work in the flour mixture, then the oats and raisins. The dough will feel very stiff. (You can make the dough ahead, cover, and refrigerate for several hours.)
• Drop the dough onto the prepared cookie sheets by the heaping tablespoon, placing the cookies about 2 inches apart. Bake 12 to 16 minutes (or for the time indicated for your altitude in the chart), or until the cookies are golden brown; the longer they bake, the crisper they will be.
• Cool the cookies on a wire rack. If the cookies were baked on parchment or a baking mat, simply slide it off the cookie sheet onto the wire rack to cool. When the cookies are completely cool, store them in an airtight container.
• Cooks' Note
• If you are baking the cookies at high altitude, follow the adjustments below.
• If baking at 3,000 feet:
• Decrease granulated sugar to ¾ cup. Bake on the center rack of your oven at 350°F for 12-13 minutes.
• If baking at 5,000 feet:
• Increase flour to 1½ cups plus 1½ tablespoons. Decrease baking soda to a generous ¼ teaspoon. Increase salt to a generous 1 teaspoon. Decrease granulated sugar to ¾ cup. Increase vanilla extract to 1½ teaspoons. Bake on the center rack of your oven at 350°F for 13-15 minutes.
• If baking at 7,000 feet:
• Increase flour to 1½ cups plus 1 tablespoon. Decrease baking soda to ¼ teaspoon. Increase salt to a generous 1 teaspoon. Decrease granulated sugar to ¾ cup. Increase vanilla extract to 1½ teaspoons. Bake on the center rack of your oven at 350°F for 10-12 minutes.
• If baking at 10,000 feet:
• Increase flour to 1½ cups plus 2 tablespoons. Decrease baking soda to ¼ teaspoon. Decrease salt to a ¾ teaspoon. Decrease granulated sugar to ¾ cup plus 2 tablespoons. Increase vanilla extract to 2 teaspoons. Bake on the center rack of your oven at 350°F for 12-15 minutes.

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:

• Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4 and line 2 baking trays with baking parchment. Pour 50ml/2fl oz boiling water over the raisins and leave to soak for 20 mins until plump. Drain, reserving the liquid.
• Meanwhile, in a large bowl, mix together the oil and sugar. Gradually beat in the egg, along with the reserved water from the raisins, the cinnamon and vanilla extract. Sift the flour, bicarbonate of soda and a pinch of salt into the bowl, then add the oats. Finally, mix in the raisins.
• Drop heaped tbsps of the cookie dough onto the baking trays, well spaced apart as they will spread when cooking. Bake for 12-15 mins until golden. Leave to cool on the trays for 10 mins before tucking in, or transfer to a cooling rack to cool completely. Will keep in an airtight container for up to 3 days.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350 degrees. Butter two large cookie sheets, or line them with parchment paper or reusable silicone liners.
• Using an electric mixer, beat butter in a large bowl until creamy. Add brown and granulated sugars, then beat until fluffy, about 2 minutes. Beat in eggs, one at a time, until fully incorporated. Then, beat in vanilla extract.
• In a separate bowl, use a wooden spoon or spatula to mix together the flour, salt, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg and cardamom. Set mixer on low speed, and beat flour mixture into the butter mixture. Stir in oats and raisins.
• Spoon out dough by large tablespoonfuls onto prepared cookie sheets, leaving at least 2 inches between each cookie.
• Bake until cookie edges turn golden brown, about 9 to 13 minutes. Centers will still be quite soft, but they will firm up as the cookies cool. Cool completely on a wire rack. Store in an airtight container at room temperature.

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 the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
• Mix 1 cup plus 1 tablespoon flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt in a bowl.
• Place cold butter in a microwave-safe bowl and heat until soft, but not melted, 20 to 30 seconds. Add brown sugar and white sugar; mix with a metal whisk or spoon for 45 seconds. Add egg, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Mix for 20 seconds. Pour in dry ingredients and mix for 10 to 20 seconds. Fold in oats and raisins for 30 seconds.
• Roll cookie dough into small balls, about 1 1/2 inches in diameter. Space cookie balls 3 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.
• Bake in the preheated oven until tops are golden brown and edges are crisp, 13 to 15 minutes.
