Ingredients

  • 1 cup salted butter, softened
  • 1 3/4 cups brown sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tbsp milk
  • 2 cups whole wheat flour
  • 2 cups rolled oats
  • 3/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp baking soda
  • 1 cup raisins

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350° F. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat and set aside.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer or with an electric hand mixer, combine the butter and brown sugar until light in color and fluffy in texture.
  • Add in the eggs and milk, mixing thoroughly.
  • Add the whole wheat flour, rolled oats, salt, baking powder, cinnamon and baking soda to the mixer and mix until a soft and almost sticky dough forms.
  • Mix in the raisins until evenly distributed.
  • Scoop 1 1/2 tbsp of dough ( #40 scoop) for each cookie. Flatten just slightly and add extra raisins to the top, if desired.
  • Bake at 350° F for 9-11 minutes or until the cookies have spread slightly and no longer look wet and glossy on the top.
  • Allow the cookies to cool on the pan for at least 15 minutes for them to set up before enjoying.
