How To Make super simple oatmeal raisin cookies

  • 1
    Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. In a large bowl, whisk together all the dry ingredients. Then add all the wet ingredients. Stir until a thick, sticky cookie dough forms. On an ungreased cookie sheet, drop a tablespoonful of dough leaving about an inch of space between each. Bake for about 12 minutes or until the edges are slightly golden. Transfer immediately to a cooling rack. Try to let cool completely and enjoy with some warm milk or tea!
