Ingredients needed
Ingredient notes
- Butter: unsalted butter softened at room temperature
- Brown sugar: dark brown sugar but light will also work.
- Pumpkin pie spice: A blend of nutmeg, allspice, a hint of cinnamon, and ginger.
- Applesauce: This replaces the eggs in these cookies.
- Old-fashioned oats: Rolled oats provide a chewy texture and nutty flavor to oatmeal cookies. You can use Quick oats in a pinch but it might change the texture a bit.
- Chocolate chips: I used white but regular chocolate chips will also work fine.
how to make this recipe
- Step 1: Whisk dry ingredients. Whisk the brown sugar, flour, baking powder, salt, and pumpkin spice in a large bowl.
- Step 2: Add wet ingredients. Then, add your softened butter, applesauce, and vanilla to the flour mixture, and using a wooden spoon stir until well combined.
- Step 3: Add oatmeal. Slowly stir in your oatmeal until thoroughly incorporated.
- Step 4: Stir in raisins and chocolate chips. Finally, fold in your white chocolate chips and raisins.
- Step 6: Scoop the dough. Use a cookie scoop to make 1-inch rounds and place them on your baking sheet.
- Step 7: Bake the cookies. Bake your cookies for 15-minutes or until the edges are lightly browned.
Recipe Tips
- Substitute ingredients. An egg can be substituted for ¼ cup of applesauce.
- Do not overbake. You only want your cookies to be lightly golden brown. They will firm as they cool. Allow them to cool on a wire rack.
- Omit ingredients. If you aren’t a fan of raisins or white chocolate chips, you can leave them out completely for simple oatmeal cookies.
- Press in a few white chocolate chips on top so they bake up nice and pretty.
recipe faq's
An absolute staple to have in your kitchen around the holidays. It's a combination of warm ground spices like cinnamon, ginger, allspice, and nutmeg. You can also make your own Pumpkin Spice Recipe.
If you don’t have dark brown sugar, you can easily use light brown sugar instead. Dark brown sugar contains more molasses than light brown sugar so the cookies may not have as strong a flavor.
These cookies can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for about 3-days. Try throwing in a slice of bread in with your baked goods it will help them stay softer for longer.
Absolutely! These easy oatmeal cookies are the perfect cookies to freeze. Simply place them in a ziplock freezer bag and store them in the freezer for up to 2 months. Allow them to thaw at room temperature before eating.
