Prep Time 20 minutes
Cook Time 10 minutes
Total Time 30 minutes
Servings 20 cookies

Ingredients

  • 125 g unsalted butter melted and cooled to room temperature
  • 150 g brown sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 3/4 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 50 g raisins plus boiling water to rehydrate
  • 70 g steel-cut oats
  • 245 g all purpose flour

Instructions

  1. Start by rehydrating the raisins in boiling water for 10min. Then rinse them and let cool down to room temperature.

  2. Whisk together the brown sugar, butter, egg, salt and baking powder until well mixed.

  3. Add the honey and mix.

  4. Switch to a spatula and add the raisins and oatmeal.

  5. Finish with the flour and mix throughly.

  6. Use a small ice cream scoop or 3/4 of a normal ice cream scoop to portion the cookies. Shape them into a ball with your hands and then flatten them.

  7. Top them with extra steel cut oats and raisins.

  8. Bake for 10-12min on baking paper at a preheated oven at 180C. You know they're done when they go slightly golden on the edges.

  9. Use a spatula to take them out of the tray as they are still soft. They will firm up as they cool down.
