Best Libbies Oatmeal Cookies Fine Oats Recipes

OLD-FASHIONED FARMHOUSE OATMEAL COOKIES

Steps:

• Position a rack in the middle of oven; preheat to 350°.
• Grease several large baking sheets or coat with nonstick spray.
• In a large heavy saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter, stirring, until completely melted and runny; remove from heat.
• Thoroughly stir the oats and 1 tablespoon water into the butter.
• Let stand for 5 minutes so the oats can hydrate.
• Vigorously stir in the sugar, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt until thoroughly incorporated.
• Vigorously stir in the egg and raisins, then the flour until very well blended.
• If the dough is very soft, stir in 1-2 tablespoons more flour.
• If it is still soft, let stand to firm up for 5 minutes.
• In a large bowl, vigorously stir the brown sugar into the butter until well blended, mashing out any sugar
• Using a 1 1/2-inch spring-loaded scoop or heaping measuring tablespoon, form the dough into uniform mounds, spacing about 2 1/2 inches apart on the baking sheets.
• Using your fingertips, pat down the mounds just slightly.
• Bake one sheet at a time for 7-10 minutes or until the cookies are barely firm in the center tops , tinged with brown, and slightly darker at the edges.
• Transfer the baking sheets to wire racks; let stand until the cookies firm up for 3 minutes.
• Using a wide spatula, transfer the cookies to the wire racks; let cool completely.

LIBBIE'S OATMEAL COOKIES FINE OATS

Steps:

• Cream sugar butter together.
• Add egg yolks; add vanilla.
• Add baking powder.
• Add fine oatmeal and almond flour if you want.
• Add raisins; fold in beaten egg whites.
• Dough will wet; it takes some stirring to get whites into dough.
• Using a teaspoon, because these cookies get big and really expand without the almond flour, place onto buttered cookie sheet because they want to stick.
• Bake in 425 degree Fahrenheit oven for 7 minutes to 10 minutes. Don't let the almond flour cookies get too brown; they are better a little softer.
