I made these this morning. They came out good. I cooked for 20min. I should have used a little more brown sugar. I used what I had.
This recipe was just what I was looking for, Soft & chewy. Baked at 375* for 11minutes and added walnuts, also added 1/4 tsp. of baking powder.
Used dried cranberries instead of raisins. And soaked them before using.
Too much flour for us. Will not make again
They were really good and simple. I added cocconut, raisins, papaya, cranberries, pineapple, chocolate chips and added some nutmeg because my son asked if I could. All the the family loved them!
I made these cookies and the batter yielded 30 nice size cookies. I added dark chocolate morsels to half of the batter for those in my family who love chocolate. I wish that other bakers would add the yields to their cookie recipes since this information is important when baking for a crowd.
Delicious and simple to make
I liked it. I kept them in the oven a bit too long, because they looked not done. But I think they were. Next time I’ll remove them at 8 minutes. They turned out crisp, not soft. Taste is good, although a bit too sweet to my liking. Next time I’ll add more oatmeal and less sugar.
I added 1/2 cup more oatmeal and raisins, and doubled the amount of cinnamon. Baked for exactly 14 minutes, perfect color, not burned. They are just a tad dry so I am going to add 1 tablespoon honey to the next batch.
Wasn’t very impressed. I found them very bland, not enough raisins or oatmeal, very little flavor
I’m trying to making oatmeal raisin cookies yum yum !
this was the best bake I’m made and proud of wish to start a bake sale with
I like it but , I had to add 1 cup of sugar and 3 teaspoon to rest of the mixture I had left .Over all it was good but not great .
This is my Mom’s go to recipe for keeping the cookie jar full. Watch the time. I found that was too long. They should just be showing some color when you take them out. 10 min. is enough in my oven.
I do not like the flavor of these cookies. All I can taste is the oil. Also I think these cookies are too cake like 🙁
great recipe – the only thing I left out of it was the salt – beings I have to stay away from it. They still tasted very good. I also tried without raisin’s and with raisin’s and also went as far to ad creamy peanut butter in the batter, about 3 Tablespoons. They turned out great.
These were cake-like. Yummy but not much flavor…
The 15-18 minute cooking time seemed a bit long to me so I set the timer for the first batch to 12 minutes. The bottoms were burnt! So, the 2nd batch went in for 10 minutes and that was just about right. Once I figured out the proper cooking time, the cookies were absolutely delicious! Thanks for sharing!
Seems to be an easy low fat recipe. I made it according to the recipe, but found them almost fluffy like egg soufflés. I would add more flour and sugar. But otherwise, my kids loved them!
I thought that these were good oatmeal cookies, a little bland. I did change the ingredients a wee bit. I added 2 cups of oatmeal, and 2 cups of flour. I substituted apple sauce for the oil, just to make them a bit more healthy. I thought that they needed a bit more cinnamon, perhaps 1/2 tsp. These are great basic healthy cookies. Hubby loved them, even tho they were healthier 😉 Oh I almost forgot I did refrigerate the dough for approx 20 mins before baking
Great recipe my family and friends can not get enough of them!I cook them for 8 minutes and they remain soft,I also and walnuts. Delicious every time,I’ve been making them at least twice a week for about a month.Love this recipe!
