Description

These oatmeal raisin cookies are made with canola oil instead of butter for a soft, chewy, and tender texture. Perfect for a sweet treat!

Ingredients

1 cup canola oil
1 cup packed brown sugar
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
4 cups rolled oats
1 cup raisins

Directions

1 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease two cookie sheets.
2 Whisk canola oil, brown sugar, eggs, and vanilla together in a large bowl until well blended. Combine flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg in a separate bowl; stir into the canola oil mixture until combined. Stir in oats and raisins until evenly distributed. Drop rounded spoonfuls of dough 2 inches apart onto the prepared cookie sheets.
3 Bake in the preheated oven until the edges are lightly browned and the centers are set, 10 to 12 minutes. Let cookies cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes. Transfer to wire racks and cool completely.
