Method
- Preheat your oven to 350°F. In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter on high power until it's almost completely liquid.
- To the melted butter, add the packed light-brown sugar, whisked egg, all-purpose flour, quick oats, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Stir everything together until it forms a well-blended mixture. It might seem dry initially, but keep stirring and it will start to come together. Finally, mix in the raisins and nuts (if using).
- On a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a Silpat mat, shape the dough into a disk approximately 3 1/2 inches in diameter.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 13 to 15 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the center still looks soft. Let it cool slightly before enjoying your single, delicious cookie.
💡 Tips
- For a chewier cookie, underbake slightly. For a crispier cookie, bake a minute or two longer.
- If you don't have quick oats, you can use rolled oats, but the texture will be slightly different.
