OATMEAL RAISIN SPICE COOKIES



Oatmeal Raisin Spice Cookies image

My husband loves oatmeal raisin cookies, soft chewy ones. I got this basic recipe from an online site, can't remember which one and added the spices I wanted to use...they are so good...

Provided by Debbie Bankston

Categories     Cookies

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/2 c butter, softened
1/2 c brown sugar, firmly packed
1/4 c sugar
1 egg, beaten lightly
1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract
3/4 c self rising flour
1 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp ginger
1/4 tsp nutmeg
1 1/2 c quick oats
1/2 c raisins-soaked to plump them
baking sheets lined with parchment

Steps:

  • 1. Mix the spices with the flour and sift one time to blend. Cream the butter and sugars until smooth. Add the egg and vanilla, mix well. Add the flour mixture and mix well. Fold in the oats and raisins blending them in.
  • 2. Drop by heaping teaspoons or use smallest scoop, onto parchment lined baking sheets. Bake at 350 for 8 minutes, DO NOT overbake or they will be hard...for nice smooth chewy cookies, 8 minutes is all they cook, remove from oven, cool on sheet for two minutes then remove to cooling rack to finish cooling.
  • 3. Note: Raisins may be plumped using water or juice...I use apple juice and brind to just a simmer in a boiler on the stove, remove from heat and let them set while I work on the batter, then squeeze the excess juice away and add to the batter.

PUMPKIN SPICE OATMEAL COOKIES



Pumpkin Spice Oatmeal Cookies image

Pumpkin, cinnamon, nutmeg, and other wonderful pumpkin spices are the perfect addition to your traditional oatmeal cookies.

Provided by Kare for Kitchen Treaty

Time 27m

Number Of Ingredients 14

3/4 cups unsalted butter (softened (1 1/2 sticks))
1 cup dark brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 egg
3/4 cup pumpkin puree
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
3 cups rolled oats

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease a baking sheet, or line it with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
  • In a large bowl with a hand mixer or in the bowl of a stand mixer affixed with the paddle attachment, beat the butter and sugars on medium speed until well-blended, about one minute. Add the egg and beat until incorporated. Add the pumpkin puree and vanilla extract. Mixture may appear slightly curdled, but don't worry! It's all good. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and cloves. With the mixer on slow speed, add the dry ingredients to the wet, and mix just until blended. Add the oats and mix just until incorporated - overmixing will lead to a tough cookie. Nobody likes tough cookies.
  • Scoop onto cookie sheet in three-tablespoon mounds (I use a 50 mm cookie scoop). Place about two inches apart.
  • Bake at 350 degrees for 10 - 12 minutes, until set and beginning to turn golden.
  • Let sit for 5 minutes then transfer to a cookie sheet to cool completely. They keep well at room temperature in an airtight container for 3 - 4 days, or freeze in a zipper bag for 1 - 2 months.

GRANDMA ANN'S ICED OATMEAL SPICE COOKIES



Grandma Ann's Iced Oatmeal Spice Cookies image

These tasty oatmeal spice cookies were a real Crew-pleaser! They're the best of both worlds. It combines a molasses cookie and an oatmeal cookie. Both are old-fashioned favorites and when combined make one yummy cookie. Each cookie is lightly crunchy on the outside, soft and chewy inside with just the right amount of spices....

Number Of Ingredients 17

COOKIES
1 c butter, softened
1 c sugar
1/2 c brown sugar
1/2 c sorghum or molasses
2 eggs
1 1/2 c all-purpose flour
1 tsp salt
1 tsp soda
2 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp ginger
1 c raisins
3 c quick oats
ICING
1 c confectioners' sugar, sifted
2 Tbsp lemon juice
1/2 tsp vanilla

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 375°F. Prepare cookie sheets with baking parchment or a silicone liner.
  • 2. Cream butter and sugars until light and fluffy. Beat in sorghum or molasses and the eggs until well blended.
  • 3. Stir together the flour, salt, soda, and spices.
  • 4. Add the dry ingredients to the creamed mixture. Mix until well mixed.
  • 5. Add raisins.
  • 6. Fold in the oats and stir well.
  • 7. Drop by tablespoons onto prepared cookie sheets. Bake for about 12 minutes, until lightly browned. Allow to set about 3 minutes on sheets, then remove to wire rack for cooling.
  • 8. When cool, you can ice with royal icing. Combine icing ingredients and stir until smooth. Add a little bit more lemon juice if too thick, or more powdered sugar if too thin.
  • 9. Drizzle from the end of a teaspoon over cookies. Or, place a teaspoon of icing in a dollop on each cookie and spread with the back of the spoon. Allow to harden before storing.
  • 10. I also discovered some leftover packaged cookie icing in my pantry and decided to ice some of the cookies with this. You can make swirls or stripes.

Tips:

  • Use old-fashioned oats. They will give your cookies a chewy texture.
  • 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.
  • Bake the cookies until the edges are golden brown and the centers are set.
  • Let the cookies cool on a wire rack before enjoying.

Conclusion:

Oatmeal spice cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. They are also a good source of fiber and protein. So next time you're looking for a sweet snack, reach for an oatmeal spice cookie!
