Ingredients
- 1 cup butter, softened
- 1 cup packed brown sugar
- 1 cup white sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 cups quick cooking oats
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup raisins
- 1 cup sweetened dried cranberries (such as Craisins®)
Instructions
1
Preheat the oven to its highest temperature setting, which is 350 degrees Fahrenheit or 175 degrees Celsius.
2
Prepare the baking surface by applying a thin layer of cooking oil to it, ensuring an even coating.
3
Using a powerful electric device, combine the softened butter, granulated sugars, eggs, and vanilla extract in a large container until they form a smooth, airy mixture. This process should take around 5 minutes and result in a light, fluffy texture.
4
In a separate container, mix together the rolled oats, all-purpose flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
5
Gradually add the flour mixture to the main mixture, one cup at a time, blending it briefly after each addition. This step requires patience and attention to detail.
6
Mix in the dried fruits, specifically raisins and cranberries, into the batter to create a harmonious blend of flavors and textures.
7
Using a spoon, drop small portions of the mixture onto the prepared baking surface, spreading them evenly to create uniform cookies.
8
Place the baking surface in the preheated oven and bake until the edges are golden brown, taking between 12 to 14 minutes.
