Perfect Oatmeal Cookies

I don't often call recipes perfect, but these oatmeal cookies are soft, chewy, and warmly spiced—everything a good oatmeal raisin cookie should be.

Ingredients

    • 1 cup all-purpose flour, spooned and leveled
    • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
    • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
    • 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
    • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
    • 1/2 cup coconut oil or unsalted butter, melted
    • 3/4 cup packed brown sugar
    • 1 large egg
    • 1 large egg yolk
    • 2 teaspoons vanilla
    • 1 1/2 cup whole rolled oats
    • 3/4 cup raisins
    • 1/2 cup chopped walnuts, optional

Directions

    1. Preheat the oven to 350°F and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
    2. Combine the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon in a large bowl. In a separate bowl, whisk together the melted coconut oil, sugar, whole egg, egg yolk, and vanilla, whisking vigorously.
    3. Stir the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir in the oats, raisins, and walnuts, if using, folding into a tight batter. Set the dough aside for 20 minutes while the oven preheats. (Note: if your dough seems too wet to become scoop-able, chill it in the fridge for this 20 minutes and it'll firm up). If your dough is too crumbly, stir in 2 to 3 tablespoons water.
    4. Use a cookie scoop to divide the dough into 20 tablespoon-sized balls. Roll lightly in barely damp hands to make them round. Spread out onto the prepared baking sheets and bake until puffed, golden, and a touch underbaked-looking, 10 to 11 minutes. Let cool on the pans for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
