Ingredients

  • 1 cup + 1 tablespoon whole grain spelt flour
  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
  • 1-1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1-1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ cup lightly packed light brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup white sugar
  • 11 tablespoons unsalted butter room temperature (154 grams) (see notes)
  • 1 egg /
  • 1-1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cups old-fashioned oats (do not use instant
  • 1 cup golden raisins

Instructions

  • Mix flour, cinnamon, baking soda, salt together in a bowl set aside.
  • Cream butter at medium speed.
  • Cream the sugar with the butter until well incorporated.
  • Add the egg.
  • Add the vanilla.
  • Add in the oats, mix well. Normally, one would add the flour mixture first, but spelt flour should not be over mixed, as the cookies will get tough. After adding the oat, add the flour mixture.
  • Add in raisins.
  • Bake at 350 for 18 minutes, (depending on what size cookies are). Check cookies at 15 minutes.
