Instructions

1
|
Preheat the oven to 350℉. Line baking sheet(s) with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
2
|
Cream together the butter, white sugar, and brown sugar with an electric handheld mixer at high speed for 30 seconds. Add the egg, honey, and vanilla and continue mixing until light and fluffy.
3
|
In another bowl, whisk together the oats, flour, baking powder, salt, and spices. Stir in the raisins. Add to butter mixture and mix on low speed just until fully incorporated.
4
|
Scoop the cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheet(s) using a medium-sized cookie dough scoop or teaspoon, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie for spreading room. Bake the cookies, one pan at a time, in the preheated oven for 8-12 minutes or until no longer wet on top and golden around the edges. Let cool on the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to finish cooling. Bake the remaining cookies. Enjoy!

Tips & Tricks (5)

  • Raisin Pre-Soak Magic 💦
    Soak raisins in warm water or rum for 15 minutes before adding to the cookie dough to ensure they stay plump and prevent burning during baking.
  • Spice Layering Technique 🌶️
    Toast your ground spices like chipotle, cinnamon, and ginger in a dry pan for 30 seconds before mixing to intensify their flavor profile and add depth to the cookies.
  • Oat Texture Mastery 🥣
    Use a mix of quick-cooking and rolled oats to create a perfectly chewy cookie with varied texture - quick oats help bind, while rolled oats provide a rustic bite.
  • Chill for Chew 🧊
    Refrigerate the cookie dough for at least 1 hour before baking to prevent spreading and enhance the chewy, dense texture of the cookies.
  • Butter Temperature Trick 🧈
    Let butter soften at room temperature for 30-45 minutes before creaming, ensuring it's pliable but not melted for optimal cookie structure and richness.
