Step-by-Step Instructions for Oatmeal Raisin Cookies
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. Whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and apple pie spice in a medium bowl.
  3. Cream the softened unsalted butter with both sugars for 3-4 minutes until light and fluffy.
  4. Add the eggs and vanilla extract, mixing until fully integrated and smooth.
  5. Gradually incorporate the dry ingredients into the wet, mixing gently until just combined.
  6. Fold in the old-fashioned oats and raisins until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
  7. Drop rounded portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spaced about 2 inches apart.
  8. Bake for 12-14 minutes or until the edges turn slightly golden brown and centers appear soft.
  9. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
