We love this recipe because it will stay chewy in the cookie jar for 7 days..if they last that long...everyone who tries them raves. If you like a big fat chewy oatmeal raisin cookie, you have to try these.

Provided by grandma2969

Categories     Dessert

Time 1h25m

Yield 2 Dozen, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

3 large eggs, lightly beaten
1/4 cup water
1 cup raisins
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup Crisco shortening
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 1/2 cups flour
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons baking soda
2 cups quick-cooking oatmeal (not instant)
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
1 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1 cup granulated sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°.
  • Whisk eggs in a small bowl, add 1/4 cup water, 1 tsp vanilla and raisins; mix well. VERY IMPORTANT let set on counter for at least 1 hour.
  • In another bowl, combine crisco, and sugars, mix well.
  • Gradually add dry ingredients.
  • Blend in raisin mixture -- mix well.
  • I use a cookie scoop, slightly less than 1/4 cup and place them on a greased cookie sheet. I slightly flatten them with the back of the scoop.
  • Bake at 350° for 10-12 minutes. Do not flatten cookies a lot -- just a gentle tap.other wise they will flatten out too much.
  • Baking note: please remember to reverse position of cookie sheets halfway through baking. DO NOT OVER BAKE. Cookies should be slightly golden brown around edges. Centers will look set-- let cool 1 minute on cookie sheet and then remove to wire rack to complete cool.
  • I have used this recipe for over 30 years-- always outstanding-- most important thing to remove cookies from oven before they are finished-- residual heat in cookies will complete cooking-- and result in a cookie that is not dried out.
  • I also add more walnuts, as I like lots of big nuts in my oatmeal cookies-- I have often left the egg, raisin mixture on counter, for a couple of hours while cleaning house and came back and baked marvelous cookies.

THE WORLD'S BEST OATMEAL TOFFEE COOKIES



The World's Best Oatmeal Toffee Cookies image

The softest, chewiest, sweetest oatmeal cookies with the decadent addition of toffee bits. One thing to consider before making this recipe is that the cookies are a tab bit thin and are not sturdy. I still need to alter it, but if you make the dough balls a little taller and less round, they should turn out just fine. The flavor is AMAZING. Recipe from "The Cookie Bible" cookbook.

BEST EVER SOURDOUGH OATMEAL BREAD



Best Ever Sourdough Oatmeal Bread image

Just as oatmeal bread is a good way to start moving to whole grain bread, oatmeal sourdough is a good way to introduce sourdough bread. It's a bit lighter than many sourdoughs, with a softer texture.

Provided by Renee Pottle

Categories     Bread

Time 50m

Yield 1 loaf

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 cups active sourdough starter
3 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
1½ cups rolled oats (either old-fashioned or quick)
2 Tbsp olive oil
1½ tsp salt
3 Tbsp honey
1 - 1¼ cups lukewarm milk

Steps:

  • Mix all ingredients in a large bowl or your stand mixer bowl.
  • Combine until a loose dough forms. Cover and let sit 30 minutes.
  • Knead dough 5 - 10 minutes or until dough is smooth. The dough will still be quite wet. That's ok if you are using a stand mixer. If you are kneading by hand you my need to add a little more flour to keep the dough from sticking. Just add as little as possible as we want to keep this a soft dough.
  • Place dough in a greased bowl, cover and let rise in a warm place, about 2 hours.
  • Shape dough and place in a large greased loaf pan. Cover and let rise for an additional 1 - 1½ hours.
  • If you are using a regular metal or glass loaf pan bake at 375 degrees for 50 - 55 minutes or until the interior reaches 200 degrees (I use my trusty digital thermometer for this). If you are using an unglazed terra cotta pan (like I do, shown above) follow the directions that come with the pan. For example, I soak the pan in water for 15 minutes and then place the bread in a cold oven, set the temperature to 475 and bake for about 50 minutes.
  • When done, remove from pan and let cool for at least 15 minutes before cutting. This is important to let the crumb set so you will get nice even slices.

Provided by Food Network

Categories     dessert

Time 55m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 cups water
2 cups milk
1 cup Irish steel-cut oats
1 pinch salt
1/2 cup apple juice
1/2 cup golden raisins or dried cherries
1/2 cup heavy cream
1 teaspoon brown sugar
1/8 teaspoon cinnamon

Steps:

  • In a medium saucepan, bring the water and milk to a boil. Stir in the steel-cut oats and salt and cook a few minutes to thicken. Reduce the heat and simmer uncovered for 30 minutes stirring occasionally.
  • Meanwhile, in a small saucepan bring the apple juice to a boil, add the raisins, and cook a few minutes to help them plump. In a mixing bowl, with a whip attachment combine the heavy cream, brown sugar, and cinnamon and whip until stiff. Keep chilled.
  • Remove the cooked oatmeal from the heat and serve piping hot in bowls. Sprinkle the plumped raisins on top of the oatmeal and spoon a dollop of the brown sugar cinnamon whipped cream in the center and serve.
  • Notes about the recipe: To cut some of the cooking time, soak the oats in water overnight by bringing the water to a boil, turn off the heat, and add the oats. Cover the pot and let sit over night. The next morning cook on low heat 9 to 12 minutes stirring occasionally.

Tips:

- **Use a variety of oats:** Different types of oats have different textures and flavors. Steel-cut oats have a chewy texture and a nutty flavor, while rolled oats are softer and have a milder flavor. Quick-cooking oats are the most processed and have the quickest cooking time. - **Choose your milk:** You can use any type of milk you like in your oatmeal. Dairy milk, almond milk, soy milk, and coconut milk are all good options. - **Add sweetness:** If you like your oatmeal sweet, you can add sugar, honey, maple syrup, or fruit. - **Add flavor:** Add spices, nuts, seeds, or dried fruit to your oatmeal for extra flavor. - **Cook oatmeal in a slow cooker:** If you want to make oatmeal ahead of time, you can cook it in a slow cooker. Just add the oats, milk, and any other ingredients to the slow cooker and cook on low for 6-8 hours. - **Make overnight oats:** Overnight oats are a great way to save time in the morning. Just combine the oats, milk, and any other ingredients in a jar and let it sit in the refrigerator overnight. In the morning, your oatmeal will be ready to eat.
