Deeelicious! I do not recommend making these when trying to lose weight, as I did! I ended up having to bake them for about 13 minutes, then realized I should have flattened them more. Squished them down a bit more and baked for another minute. Perfect! I also made a batch without raisins for my picky daughter. I need to wait until I lose more weight before making them again. 🙂

I use ripened bananas to cut back on sugar and to make it chewier and even more flavourful… and added some dark chocolate chips along with the usual oatmeal and raisins. Delicious!

In reply to Susie.

Thank you for that! Obviously I could work out out myself, but it’s nice not to have to, haha.

I have always used the recipe on the oats container but wanted to try something different. I am so glad I did. These cookies are moist and chewy but also taste delicious. I left the dough to chill for about 36 hours. This was not intentional but I am glad I did. The oats absorbed some of the moisture in the mix and just added another level of yumminess for me. I love raisins on my oatmeal cookies but next time I will scale back on them just a smidge.

Not my favourite recipe for oatmeal raisin. They are too “cakey” for lack of a better description. They don’t flatten out at all, even after using a fork to flatten before putting in the oven. Flavour is okay, but I prefer a more flat cookie with crispy edge and chewy centre. These are quite dry and mounded.

Delicious recipe. I added some walnuts to it and they were amazing.

I have made these so many times now – sometimes with chocolate chips instead! The only thing I find is that the first few come out really well, and then the second and third batches (I have a small oven) look flatter and less cookie-like. Not sure if it’s because the dough is more chilled when the first batch goes in?

Anyway GREAT recipe and would absolutely recommend.

Delicious! decreased raisins by 1/4 cup, increased baking time to 13 min because I chilled the dough overnight.

Yum! I erred on the side of chewy and went a little over 11 minutes. Didn’t change anything except for hand mixing instead of using an electric mixer. I doubled the recipie and have some portioned out to freeze for next time.
