Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • ¾ cup packed light brown sugar
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs, at room temperature
  • ½ cup real maple syrup
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour, spooned and leveled
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 2 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
  • ¾ cup raisins

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F and line two baking sheets with parchment. Beat butter and both sugars until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes.
  2. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each. Pour in maple syrup and vanilla, then beat until smooth.
  3. Whisk flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon in a separate bowl.
  4. Gradually mix dry ingredients into wet ingredients on low speed until just combined. Fold in oats and raisins with a spatula.
  5. Scoop rounded tablespoonfuls of dough onto the sheets, spacing them 2 inches apart. Bake 10 to 12 minutes until edges are golden and centers look slightly underdone.
  6. Let cookies rest on the sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Notes

The dough can be chilled for up to 2 days before baking if you want to get ahead. Slightly underbaking is the secret to a soft middle, so trust the timer more than the color.
