Method

Restated from the original video

1. 1

   Heat the oven to 175 °C (350 °F) with a rack in the middle. Line two baking sheets with parchment.

2. 2

   Cover the raisins with warm water and leave for 15 min. Drain and pat them dry.

3. 3

   In a bowl, combine the flour with the salt, cinnamon, baking powder and baking soda, whisking to mix.

4. 4

   Using medium-high speed, cream the butter with the granulated sugar and brown sugar until pale and fluffy, 2-3 min.

5. 5

   Beat in the egg and vanilla until fully blended.

6. 6

   On low speed, add the flour mixture and mix just until no dry flour shows.

7. 7

   Fold in the oats and raisins with a spatula. The dough will be stiff.

8. 8

   Scoop 16 balls of about 3 tbsp each onto the sheets, 5 cm apart. Press each one down a little.

9. 9

   Bake one sheet at a time until the edges turn golden and the centres still look soft, 11-13 min.

10. 10

    Leave the cookies on the sheet for 5 min, then move them to a wire rack to cool.
