Time 22m

Yield 32 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

Ingredients

12 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened (175g)
3/4 cup firmly packed light brown sugar (160g)
2/3 cup granulated sugar (130g)
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups rolled oats (170g)
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour (160g)
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups raisins, if desired (200g)

Steps:

Preheat oven to 375°F/190°C/Gas Mark 5.
Cream together; butter and sugars until light and fluffy.
Add egg and vanilla extract; beat until well combined.
In a small bowl combine oats, flour, soda, baking powder and salt.
Mix into butter mixture until just combined.
Stir in raisins if desired.
Drop the dough by heaped tablespoons onto ungreased baking sheets, leaving a 2" gap between each mound.
Tip: I used a dessert-spoon and made ovals rather than balls (quenelles, if we're being posh) as I heard that this caused the dough to spread less.
Bake for 12-15 minutes until golden brown.
Cool on sheet for at least a minute before transferring to a rack.

Tips:

Use high-quality, rolled oats. This will give your cookies a chewier texture and a more nutty flavor.
Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the cookies tough.
Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
Bake the cookies until they are just set. Overbaking will make them dry and crumbly.
Let the cookies cool completely on a wire rack before storing them. This will help them to keep their shape and prevent them from becoming soggy.
Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
