Oatmeal Cookie Recipes

There’s nothing quite like a batch of homemade Oatmeal Cookies, just like Grandma made! This is my favorite oatmeal cookie recipe!

They’re soft and chewy, perfectly spiced, dotted with juicy raisins and crunchy walnuts and always sure to satisfy those cookie cravings.

You’ll love all the textures in these oatmeal cookies and their rich buttery flavor. They’re just one of those classic cookies everyone will love and you’ll want to make time and time again.

And of course the ultimate way to enjoy these cookies is fresh, warm from the oven with a tall glass of ice cold, creamy whole milk.

There’s just something so nostalgic about these (oatmeal cookies just like Grandma’s!), and it’s a tradition that should be passed down for generations to come.

Chocolate chips work great here too. Just omit the raisins and add 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips instead.

Yes. Salted butter will work fine here if that’s what you have on hand. Just omit the salt because there’s about 1/4 tsp salt per stick of salted butter.
