Pecan Oatmeal Raisin Cookie Recipe

Even though I’m a cookie monster at home, I placed a call to a loved one to find out their favorite cookie. I’ve exhausted what I have in my recipe box of family treats, so make enough for me and your family, and I’ll stop by for a sample!

Ingredients:                                            

  • 3/4 Cup Butter, softened
  • 3/4 Cup White Sugar
  • 3/4 Cup Light Brown Sugar, packed
  • 2 Large Eggs

  • 1 1/4 Cups All-Purpose Flour
  • 1 TSP Baking Soda
  • 3/4 TSP Ground Cinnamon
  • 1/2 TSP Salt
  • 2 3/4 Cups Rolled Oats
  • 1 Cup Pecans, toasted
  • 1 Cup Raisins

Directions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F. Line two cookie sheets with parchment paper or silicone liners.
  2. Beat butter, white sugar, and brown sugar in a large bowl until smooth and creamy. Beat in eggs and vanilla until fluffy.
  3. Stir together flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Gradually beat into the butter mixture. Stir in oats, toasted pecans and raisins.
  4. Drop teaspoonfuls of batter onto the prepared cookie sheets.
  5. Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, 8 to 10 minutes, switching racks halfway through.
  6. Remove from the oven and let sit on the cookie sheets for 1-2 minutes before transferring cookies to a wire rack to cool completely.
