Heat oven to 350 degrees.
In a large mixing bowl, mix well:
1 cup softened butter
1 cup brown sugar
1 cup white sugar
Beat for 5 minutes until fluffy.
Continue mixing in:
2 eggs
1 teasp. vanilla extract
In another bowl, mix dry ingredients:
1/2 c. BREAD flour (gluten content makes them chewier)
2 cups white flour
3 cups rolled oats
1 teasp. baking powder
1 teasp. baking soda
1 teasp. ground cinnamon
Combine dry ingredients with butter mixture, mixing well. Add 2 cups raisins. (You can also add dried cranberries, chopped nuts, chocolate chips.....) Blend everything together.
Drop dough by rounded tablespoons onto parchment lined baking sheets, leaving at least an inch between cookies (around 12 per sheet). Flatten slightly and if you like, sprinkle the tops lightly with cinnamon sugar (I do that!).
Bake for 13-15 minutes until edges of cookies are golden. Cool completely.
