Step 1

Heat the oven to 350°F.

Step 2

In large bowl, beat together the butter and sugars until creamy. Add in the eggs and vanilla then beat until fully incorporated.

Step 3

Whisk together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon and salt in a medium bowl. Add into the butter mixture, mixing in completely.

Step 4

Add in the oats and raisins and stir in by hand.

Step 5

Drop rounded tablespoonfuls of dough onto ungreased cookie sheets. Bake 8 to 10 minutes or until light golden brown.

Step 6

Cool the cookies for 2-3 minutes on the cookie sheets; then remove to wire rack. If you move them too soon they will fall apart!

Step 7

Cool them completely. Store tightly covered if they last that long ( they won't.)
