Directions
Best Oatmeal Raisin Cookies, This is a family favorite that I have been making for years It’s the most requested oatmeal cookie recipe I’ve ever made I found it somewhere years ago, but have lost the source The secret is soaking the raisins which makes all the difference , I made these this morning, not bad but needed more flavor, next time I will up the cinnamon to 2 tsp rather than just the 1 and add some nutmeg, I thought these were bland As far as the soaking the raisins in egg for an hour I didn’t do that, I did what I normally do when baking with any dried fruit and that is to put them into some water and microwave for 5 minutes, drain and use The purpose is to hydrate them and I didn’t have an hour for soaking them Mine took about 13 minutes to brown and crisp , I’m making these today should I make any changes for high altitude?
