Ingredients

3/4 cup butter, softened
3/4 cup white sugar
3/4 cup packed light brown sugar
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 3/4 cups rolled oats
1 cup raisins

Directions

1 Gather all ingredients. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line two cookie sheets with parchment paper or silicone liners.
2 Beat butter, white sugar, and brown sugar in a large bowl until smooth and creamy. Beat in eggs and vanilla until fluffy.
3 Stir together flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Gradually beat into the butter mixture. Stir in oats and raisins. Drop teaspoonfuls of batter 2 inches apart onto the prepared cookie sheets.
4 Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, 8 to 10 minutes, switching racks halfway through. Remove from the oven and let sit on the cookie sheets for 1 to 2 minutes before transferring cookies to a wire rack to cool completely.
