Start with the dry mix: add 2 cups of all-purpose flour to a bowl.

Add 1 teaspoon of baking soda, 1 teaspoon of cinnamon, and about 1 teaspoon of salt to the flour and set aside.

In another bowl, cream together 2 sticks of butter, 1 cup of granulated sugar, and 1 cup of brown sugar using a mixer.

Once creamed, add about 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract.

Add 2 eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition and scraping down the sides of the bowl.

Gradually incorporate the flour mixture into the wet mixture until combined.

Add 2 cups of oats and mix until combined.

Fold in the raisins as the final ingredient.

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking tray with parchment paper, crumpling it first for better adhesion.

Spoon balls of cookie dough onto the baking tray, fitting about a dozen on the tray.

Bake in the oven for 9 to 12 minutes until they are golden brown and have spread out but still have some thickness.
