Makes approximately 5 dozen
ELEMENTS:
One cup NON-DAIRY COOKING MARGARINE (such as Nucoa) or COCONUT OIL.
One and a half cup DARK BROWN SUGAR
Two EGGS
Two teaspoons PURE VANILLA EXTRACT
One and a half cup WHOLE WHEAT FLOUR
One teaspoon BAKING SODA
One teaspoon BAKING POWDER
Three-quarters teaspoon SALT
One teaspoon GROUND CINNAMON
Three cups OLD FASHIONED OATS
One cup RAISINS
APPLICATION:
Preheat oven to 350F degrees. Lightly grease baking sheets.
Cream butter and sugar together in a mixer, then add eggs and vanilla and beat until fluffy. Add flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt, beating until combined. Stir in oats and raisins.
Using a cookie scoop, drop rounded tablespoons onto greased baking sheets. Bake until light browned, about 10-12 minutes. Remove from oven and let sit for 5 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack.
TIPS:
When it says to grease the pan, make sure you do it! These suckers have a tendency to stick if not properly greased.
Some variations to try: add three-quarters cup unsweetened shredded coconut or two cups of chocolate chips to the batter.
