THE BEST OATMEAL RAISIN COOKIES



The Best Oatmeal Raisin Cookies image

Do you like chewy cookies? Or do you prefer cakey ones? Our oatmeal-raisin cookies can be both! For a chewy cookie, bake them right away. For a cakey cookie, let the dough rest in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours (or overnight works even better) to allow the oatmeal to hydrate. Then bake for a puffy cookie. We used dark brown sugar for added flavor and moisture but our secret ingredient is honey. When baked right away, the honey causes the cookie to spread, keeping it soft and moist. When you let the dough rest, the oatmeal and flour absorb the honey for that classic cakey texture.

Time 1h30m

Yield 24 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 cup all-purpose flour (see Cook's Note)
1 1/4 teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
3/4 cup packed dark brown sugar
1 stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter, at room temperature
1/4 cup honey
1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
1 large egg, at room temperature
2 1/2 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
1 cup raisins

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.

OATMEAL RAISIN COOKIES



Oatmeal Raisin Cookies image

For the perfect winner to fill up your cookie jar, bake these got-it-all oatmeal cookies loaded with raisins and nuts. While there is no shortage of oatmeal cookie recipes out there, we love these in particular because they strike the perfect balance of crispiness and chewiness. The ratio of ingredients used turns out a cookie that isn't tall and cakey, but instead a little slender and nicely caramelized around the edges.

Categories     dessert

Time 2h35m

Yield about 18 truffles

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/3 cup raisins
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup quick-cooking oats
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon fine salt
1/3 cup packed light brown sugar
1/4 cup granulated sugar
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 tablespoon Greek yogurt
1/2 teaspoon nonalcoholic vanilla extract
1 cup butterscotch chips
2 tablespoons vegetable shortening or coconut oil

Steps:

  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Soak the raisins in hot water for 5 minutes, then strain.
  • Microwave the flour in a small microwave-safe bowl for 1 minute. Remove and stir well. Microwave for an additional minute or until the temperature reaches 180 degrees F. Sift into a medium bowl, then whisk in the oats, cinnamon, baking powder and salt (see Cook's Note).
  • Beat the brown sugar, granulated sugar, butter, yogurt and vanilla with an electric mixer on medium-high speed in a large bowl until well combined, about 2 minutes. Add the flour mixture, and mix on low speed until well incorporated. (Turn off the mixer and use your hands to help combine if needed.) Fold in the raisins with a rubber spatula, or mix them in with your hands.
  • Scoop tablespoonfuls of the dough, and roll them into smooth balls. Put them on the prepared baking sheet, and refrigerate until chilled, about 1 hour.
  • Melt the butterscotch chips and shortening in a medium microwave-safe bowl in the microwave in 30-second increments, stirring in between, until the coating is smooth and thin. Drop the chilled balls into the coating, and roll them around with a fork to fully coat. Remove each truffle with the fork, letting any excess coating drip off, and return to the baking sheet. (If the coating begins to harden, microwave it for a few seconds to warm it up and thin it out.) Refrigerate the truffles until the coating is completely set, about 1 hour. (The truffles can be refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 5 days.)

OATMEAL RAISIN COOKIE PIE



Oatmeal Raisin Cookie Pie image

Crunchy and chewy at the same time, this hybrid pie is wonderful served slightly warm a la mode or with a dollop of unsweetened whipped cream. What better way to eat one of our favorite American classic cookies than nestled within a pie crust?

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     dessert

Time 1h30m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

One 9-inch refrigerated prepared pie dough, or your favorite single crust recipe
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
3/4 cup packed light brown sugar
10 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 large egg
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
Kosher salt
1 cup rolled oats, plus more for garnish
3/4 cup dark and/or golden raisins
Vanilla ice cream or unsweetened whipped cream, for serving

Steps:

  • Adjust an oven rack to the middle position and preheat to 350 degrees F. Roll the dough into a 12-inch round on a lightly floured surface (or between two pieces of floured parchment paper). Ease the dought into a 9-inch glass pie plate and flute the edge as desired. Chill 30 minutes.
  • Line the pie dough with foil and pie weights and bake until the edge just starts to turn golden, about 15 minutes. Remove the foil and weights and continue to bake until the bottom is lightly golden, about 10 minutes more. Cool completely on a rack, about 15 minutes.
  • Combine the sugar, butter, egg, flour, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a food processor. Process until smooth and combined. Add the oats and raisins and pulse a few times until roughly chopped.
  • Scrape the filling into the par-baked pie shell and spread evenly. Bake until the top is golden brown and a knife inserted in the center comes out clean, 35 to 40 minutes. Let cool on a rack for at least 1 hour if serving warm, or let cool completely and serve at room temperature. Top with ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.

Tips:

  • Use fresh rolled oats: Fresh rolled oats will give your cookie dough a better texture and flavor than quick-cooking oats.
  • Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough for at least 30 minutes will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much in the oven.
  • Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough will make the cookies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Use high-quality raisins: High-quality raisins will give your cookies a better flavor. Look for raisins that are plump and juicy.
  • Don't crowd the cookies on the baking sheet: Leave at least 2 inches of space between the cookies on the baking sheet so that they have room to spread.
  • Bake the cookies until they are golden brown: The cookies are done baking when they are golden brown around the edges and the tops are set.

Conclusion:

Oatmeal raisin cookie dough is a delicious and versatile treat that can be enjoyed in many different ways. Whether you're baking a batch of cookies, making a parfait, or just enjoying a spoonful of dough straight from the bowl, you're sure to love this classic recipe.
