Oatmeal and Raisin Cookies

Ingredients

• 125 g unsalted butter (melted and cooled to room temperature)
• 150 g brown sugar
• 1 egg
• 3/4 tsp baking powder
• 1 tsp salt
• 2 tbsp honey
• 50 g raisins (plus boiling water to rehydrate)
• 70 g steel-cut oats
• 245 g all purpose flour

Instructions

1. 1

   Start by rehydrating the raisins in boiling water for 10min. Then rinse them and let cool down to room temperature.

2. 2

   Whisk together the brown sugar, butter, egg, salt and baking powder until well mixed.

3. 3

   Add the honey and mix.

4. 4

   Switch to a spatula and add the raisins and oatmeal.

5. 5

   Finish with the flour and mix throughly.

6. 6

   Use a small ice cream scoop or 3/4 of a normal ice cream scoop to portion the cookies. Shape them into a ball with your hands and then flatten them.

7. 7

   Top them with extra steel cut oats and raisins.

8. 8

   Bake for 10-12min on baking paper at a preheated oven at 180C. You know they're done when they go slightly golden on the edges.

9. 9

   Use a spatula to take them out of the tray as they are still soft. They will firm up as they cool down.
