PREPARATION

  • Preheat the oven: Preheat the oven to 175°C (350°F) and line a small baking tray with parchment paper.
  • Melt the butter: Melt the butter in a microwave-safe bowl or on the stovetop until it is fully melted. Allow it to cool slightly.
  • Mix the wet ingredients: In a bowl, combine melted butter, honey, milk and vanilla extract. Stir well to create a smooth mixture.
  • Prepare the dry ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the rolled oats, whole wheat flour, baking powder, cinnamon and a pinch of salt.
  • Combine wet and dry ingredients: Gradually mix the wet ingredients into the dry mixture, stirring until thoroughly combined. The dough should be slightly sticky but firm enough to shape.
  • Fold in the raisins: Distribute them evenly throughout the dough for balanced sweetness.
  • Shape the cookie: Form the dough into a small ball and flatten it slightly on the prepared baking tray.
  • Bake the cookie: Bake the cookie for 10–12 minutes or until golden brown and firm around the edges.
  • Cool before serving: Let the cookie rest on the tray for a few minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy warm or at room temperature.

TIPS

Here are some tips for the preparation of an Oatmeal Raisin Cookie:

  • Use room temperature ingredients: This ensures even mixing and a consistent texture.
  • For extra chewiness: Let the cookie dough rest for 5 minutes before baking.
  • Do not overbake: The cookie will continue to firm up as it cools, so remove it from the oven when the edges turn golden.
  • Enhance the flavour: Add a pinch of nutmeg or a dash of almond extract for extra warmth and depth.
  • Substituting raisins: Swap them for chopped dates, cranberries or dark chocolate chips for variety.
  • For a crunchier cookie: Bake for an additional 1–2 minutes and let it cool completely before eating.

VARIATIONS

  • Dairy-Free: Replace butter with coconut oil and use almond or oat milk.
  • Vegan: Swap honey for maple syrup or agave nectar and use plant-based butter as a substitute.
  • Gluten-Free: Substitute whole wheat flour with oat flour or a gluten-free flour blend.
  • Higher Protein: Add ½ teaspoon of chia seeds, flaxseeds or a small scoop of protein powder.
  • Nutty Cookie: Mix in a teaspoon of chopped walnuts or almonds for added crunch and flavour.

PREPPING AND STORAGE

  • Refrigeration: Store the baked cookie in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
  • Freezing: Place the cookie in a freezer-safe bag and freeze for up to 1 month.
  • Reheating: Warm in a microwave for 10–15 seconds or a low-temperature oven for a crispier texture.
