Classic Oatmeal Raisin Cookies Recipe

• 1 stick softened butter
• 1 cup packed brown sugar
• 1 egg
• 1 1/2 cups oatmeal
• 1 cup all purpose flour
• 1/2 cup unsweetened grated coconut
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg

1. Cream butter and sugar. You can do this by hand or with a mixer. Beat the mixture until light and fluffy or when the color changes to an almost white tinge. Add egg.

2. Combine the rest of the ingredients, except the raisins, in a separate bowl then slowly add to the creamed mixture. Beat well to combine then stir the raisins in.

3. Drop tablespoonfuls of the batter into cookie sheets and bake for 10-12 minutes on a preheated 400 F oven. Turn the spiced oatmeal cookies halfway for even cooking. Let cool then eat! 😀
