High Altitude Oatmeal Raisin Cookies, **September 2015 Edit – I am so confused by the two terrible reviews below This is one of my most popular recipes ever These cookies have turned out perfectly EVERY single time I have made them I have to wonder if exact altitude makes a difference So, with that in mind, I am adding that I am at 5900 feet above sea level If your altitude is different at all make at your own risk ** As a recent transplant to Colorado I am having to adjust all my recipes to High Altitude This is my attempt at Oatmeal Raisin Cookies , I’m about to make another batch of your oatmeal raisin cookie recipe The first two times I made it the cookies turned out perfectly!! I did follow your recipe EXACTLY, no substitutions We live in Northwestern Colorado and our home is at altitude 9, 800ft I don’t have a cookie pic but I’ll try and add one after this batch , I made these just this morning and they turned out fine I followed the recipe exactly It is November 23, 2019 I live in Colorado and the altitude where we live is 5331 ft Chewy oatmeal cookies are my husband’s favorite and I’ve made hundreds of batches I have tried a lot of recipes for these cookies and these turned out very tasty I might try adding a smidge more flour next time as Kelly47223 suggested because of weather affecting the outcome but also people don’t realize that the butter you use can affect the outcome as well Inexpensive butter contains more water than an expensive brand I buy butter in bulk at Costco and its not the expensive kind, so that being said, a couple of my cookies were flatter than the rest of the batch All in all, a very good recipe Thanks!
