Steps
Method 1 of 3: Classic Oatmeal Raisin Cookies
These traditional oatmeal cookies, flavored with cinnamon and complemented with raisins, are the perfect and healthy snack for an afternoon snack. The biscuits are soft on the inside and slightly crispy on the outside. Served with a glass of milk!
Step 1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees
Step 2. Whisk butter and sugar
Place butter, white sugar, and brown sugar in a large bowl. Using a mixer, beat until the mixture is completely smooth, yet light and fluffy. This should take about 3 or 4 minutes.
Using melted butter can help this process. If the oil is cold, you can heat it slightly in the microwave for about 15 seconds
Step 3. Add eggs and vanilla
Continue beating the dough until the eggs and vanillin are thoroughly combined.
Step 4. Mix dry ingredients
In a separate bowl, combine flour, salt, cinnamon, baking soda, and oatmeal until the ingredients are completely combined.
Step 5. Add dry ingredients to liquid mixture
Pour 1/3 of the dry mixture into a bowl of beaten eggs and stir on the lowest setting (or stir by hand) until smooth. Do the same with the next and last 1/3 serving of the dry mixture.
Do not beat the dough at high speed, do it slowly! Thus, you can rest assured that the cookies will turn out to be light and tasty, and not tough
Step 6. Add raisins
Last but not least, add 1.5 cups of raisins, and remember not to stir for too long.
Step 7. Lay out the cookies
Use a spatula, small measuring cup, or spoon to place the cookies on the non-stick baking sheet. Arrange the cookies so that there is a 2.5 cm distance between the portions, as they will become wider during the baking process. As a result, you will get about 2 dozen cookies, so you have to bake them in two batches or on two separate sheets.
- If you do not have a nonstick baking sheet, grease the baking sheet before use. You can also spread a sheet of parchment paper for baking.
- Make big biscuits if you like! Use a ½ cup measuring cup to lay out the huge oatmeal cookies, which will be soft in the middle and crunchy around the edges.
Step 8. Bake the cookies
Place it in a preheated oven and bake for 10 to 12 minutes, until it turns brown around the edges. Remove the cookies from the oven and let cool.
Method 2 of 3: Chocolate Crunchy Oatmeal Cookies
Oatmeal can give your liver a delicious taste. It goes well with chocolate spread or chocolate. These crispy, golden brown biscuits are perfectly flavored with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
Step 1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees
Step 2. Whisk butter and sugar
Place butter, white and brown sugar in a bowl. Use an electric mixer to whisk them together until the mixture is light and fluffy.
Step 3. Add egg and vanilla
Without turning off the mixer, add the egg and add the vanillin. Continue whisking until the mixture is completely smooth.
Step 4. Mix dry ingredients
In a separate bowl, combine flour, salt, baking soda, and oats. Use a spoon or whisk to stir until they are completely blended.
Step 5. Add dry ingredients to liquid mixture
Pour 1/3 of the dry mixture into a bowl of beaten eggs and stir on the lowest setting (or stir by hand) until smooth. Do the same with the next and last 1/3 portion of the dry mixture, beat until the white flour is no longer visible.
Do not stir for too long! The cookie will turn out tough. Use a wooden spoon or set mixer to the slowest speed to mix dry ingredients into slurry
Step 6. Stir the dough with the chocolate chips
Stir in all the chocolate chips and use a spoon to gently mix with the dough.
Step 7. Spread out the cookies with a spatula
Use a spatula or spoon to place the cookies on a nonstick baking sheet (or a greased baking sheet). Arrange the cookies so that there is a 2.5 cm distance between the portions, leaving room for them to grow. You should have enough dough for 2 dozen cookies.
Step 8. Bake the cookies
Place it in the oven and bake for 10 to 12 minutes, until it turns golden brown around the edges. Take it out of the oven and let cool.
If you like crunchier cookies, you can leave them in the oven for a little longer. Just check often to make sure it doesn't burn
Method 3 of 3: Healthy Oatmeal Cookies
Oatmeal cookies can only be considered a healthy baked product if you use the right ingredients. Adding a little sugar and honey, as well as a little white wheat flour, will create a firm, slightly sweet cookie that tastes good.
Step 1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees
Step 2. Mix butter and sweeteners
Place butter, honey, and sugar in a large bowl. You can use a mixer to beat the butter and sweet ingredients until the butter is melted.
Step 3. Mix dry ingredients
Place white flour, wheat flour, baking powder, salt and oatmeal in a separate bowl. Use whisk to blend the ingredients until smooth.
Step 4. Add dry ingredients to liquid mixture
Add 1/3 portions of the dry mixture, beat with a mixer at the lowest speed until visible white flour disappears.
Step 5. Add the sliced fruit
Pour into the dough and then use a spoon to stir gently without taking too long.
Step 6. Chill the dough
Optionally, you can refrigerate the dough for a few hours or overnight. This extra step will help give the liver a thick consistency.
Step 7. Spread out the cookies with a spatula
Use a spatula or spoon to place the cookies on the baking sheet, leaving a 2.5 cm distance between servings. You should have enough dough for 2 dozen cookies.
Step 8. Bake the cookies
Place the baking sheet in a preheated oven. Bake the cookies for 10 to 12 minutes, until they are golden brown around the edges.
