Recipe Summary Thin And Crispy Oatmeal Raisin Cookies
I tried to combine recipes to come up with a cookie that tastes like Tate's Bake Shop cookies. The published Tate's recipe on YouTube does not taste like the cookies you buy in the store in the green bag. This is the closest I've come to simulating the oatmeal raisin flavor. This is not a thick cakey cookie but a thin, crisp, lighter version.Ingredients | Oatmeal Raisin Cookie Recipes
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
¾ teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
1 ¾ sticks cold salted butter
½ cup brown sugar
½ cup white sugar
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
2 cups rolled oats
1 cup raisins
Directions
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
Mix 1 cup plus 1 tablespoon flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt in a bowl.
Place cold butter in a microwave-safe bowl and heat until soft, but not melted, 20 to 30 seconds. Add brown sugar and white sugar; mix with a metal whisk or spoon for 45 seconds. Add egg, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Mix for 20 seconds. Pour in dry ingredients and mix for 10 to 20 seconds. Fold in oats and raisins for 30 seconds.
Roll cookie dough into small balls, about 1 1/2 inches in diameter. Space cookie balls 3 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.
Bake in the preheated oven until tops are golden brown and edges are crisp, 13 to 15 minutes.
Make sure you don't overmix the cookie dough. I don't use an electric mixer because it overmixes.
