OATMEAL RUM RAISIN COOKIES



Oatmeal Rum Raisin Cookies image

Level up your regular Oatmeal Raisin Cookies by soaking your raisins in orange-spiced rum! Makes about 2 dozen cookies, depending on size

Provided by Clarisse

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 cup raisins
¼ cup dark rum
1/4 teaspoon grated orange zest
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 ½ cups old-fashioned rolled oats
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
12 tablespoons unsalted butter (room temperature)
1 ½ cups light brown sugar (packed)
½ cup white sugar
2 large eggs (room temperature)

Steps:

  • 1. In a small bowl, combine the raisins, rum, and grated orange zest. Allow to soak for 30 minutes until most of the rum is absorbed. You can also do this the night before to give the raisins a good long soak.
  • 2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, rolled oats, ground cinnamon, baking powder, and salt.
  • 3. In a separate large bowl (or the bowl of your stand mixer, fitted with the paddle attachment), cream together butter and sugar until light and airy, about 5 minutes. (Or about 2 to 3 minutes if using the stand mixer.) Add the eggs in one at a time, making sure to scrape down the sides with each addition. Mix until well-combined.
  • 4. Switching to a spatula, add the flour mixture into the wet in two parts. Finally, add the rum-infused raisins, grated orange zest, and any leftover rum. Mix well so the raisins are well-distributed in the dough. Refrigerate at least 1 hour so they don't become too flat when they bake.
  • 5. Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) about 20 minutes before ready to bake. Line two baking sheets with non-stick parchment paper. Portion the cookies into 1 Tablespoon-sized mounds (or more if you like it bigger) and place at least an inch apart on your baking sheet.
  • 6. Bake cookies for 13 to 15 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden brown. Let sit on the baking sheet for about 2 minutes before removing to a rack to cool. Store in an airtight container for about a week.

THE BEST OATMEAL RAISIN COOKIES



The Best Oatmeal Raisin Cookies image

Do you like chewy cookies? Or do you prefer cakey ones? Our oatmeal-raisin cookies can be both! For a chewy cookie, bake them right away. For a cakey cookie, let the dough rest in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours (or overnight works even better) to allow the oatmeal to hydrate. Then bake for a puffy cookie. We used dark brown sugar for added flavor and moisture but our secret ingredient is honey. When baked right away, the honey causes the cookie to spread, keeping it soft and moist. When you let the dough rest, the oatmeal and flour absorb the honey for that classic cakey texture.

Time 1h30m

Yield 24 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 cup all-purpose flour (see Cook's Note)
1 1/4 teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
3/4 cup packed dark brown sugar
1 stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter, at room temperature
1/4 cup honey
1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
1 large egg, at room temperature
2 1/2 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
1 cup raisins

Steps:

  • Arrange an oven rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Whisk together the flour, salt, baking soda and cinnamon in a small bowl until combined. Beat the brown sugar and butter in a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add the honey, vanilla, egg and 1 tablespoon warm water and beat on high speed until creamy, scraping the sides and bottom of the bowl, about 3 minutes more. Add the dry ingredients and mix on low speed, scraping the bowl as needed, until completely combined. Add the oats and beat on low speed until combined. Fold in the raisins until evenly distributed. Arrange twelve 1-ounce scoops (2-tablespoon portions) of cookie dough on the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches between each. Bake until the cookies are lightly golden around the edges, 15 to 20 minutes. Cool on the sheet for 10 minutes, and then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Let the baking sheet cool, and then repeat with the remaining cookie dough.

Tips:

  • Use old-fashioned oats. They'll give your cookies a chewier texture than quick-cooking or instant oats.
  • Toast your oats. Toasting the oats before adding them to the cookie dough will enhance their flavor and give them a slightly crunchy texture.
  • Soak your raisins in rum. This will plump them up and give them a delicious rum flavor. If you don't have rum, you can soak the raisins in orange juice or water.
  • Use brown sugar and white sugar. The brown sugar will give your cookies a chewy texture and a slightly molasses-y flavor, while the white sugar will add sweetness and help the cookies spread.
  • Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing the dough will make the cookies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Chill the dough before baking. Chilling the dough will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much in the oven.
  • Bake the cookies until they are golden brown around the edges. The centers of the cookies should still be slightly soft.

Conclusion:

These oatmeal cookies with rum-soaked raisins are a delicious and easy-to-make treat. They're perfect for a snack or dessert, and they're sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
