For those that had a day off on Monday hope you had a good holiday, did you do anything exciting? Unfortunately, I did not have the day off. But the weekend in Seattle was gorgeous, bright sunny and all the mountains were out. When the sun is out in Seattle it is a stunning city.
At one point I was craving oatmeal cookies but wanted something different. Then I found this cookie recipe that I have saved from some old Swedish magazine. This cookie is a cross between oatmeal wafer and a oatmeal cookie. Not as chewy as the oatmeal cookie but not as crisp at an oatmeal wafer. If you are an oatmeal cookie fan I think you will love this.
The best part is that this recipe could not be easier to make.
Oatmeal Crisps
Yields: 25 cookies | Prep Time: 15 minutes | Bake Time: 15 minutes
9 tbsp (125g) butter
½ cup + 2 tbsp (1.5 dl) sugar
½ cup +2 tbsp (1.5 dl) all purpose flour
1 cup (2.5 dl) oatmeal
¼ cups (0.5 dl) raisins
1 tsp baking sodaTurn the oven to 350 F.
Mix all the ingredients together. Once you have a big dough mixture make small balls and place them on a cookie sheet. Then press on each ball to make it a little flat.
Bake in the oven for 10-15 minutes. Remove from cookie sheet and place on rack to cool.

These look tasty! I’m a big oatmeal cookie fan but I haven’t found “the” recipe. Every time I make them, I use a new recipe. This one will get a whirl.
I’m an oatmeal cookie fanatic and am always on the lookout for new recipes to try. This one is next on my list to make up. Besides, oatmeal is a healthy breakfast, no matter what form it comes in, right?
I also worked, but DC wasn’t nearly as crowded so that was a nice bonus 🙂 I love your food pictures although I need to stop looking at them before lunch. My lunch just never tastes as good after seeing your posts!
Ohhhh, I so love the seattle mountain view. I don’t get to see it this year. The first year I won’t be attending the Puyallup Sewing Expo.
And mmmm I’m now craving cookies.
I am a BIG oatmeal cookie fan and love that these are the best of both chewy/crunchy worlds!

Yes no egg. Let me know what you think if you make them.
Oatmeal cookies are my favorites and these look sooo inviting and delicious!
Count me in as an oatmeal cookie fan! I like the simple, not too sweet approach you’ve used here, which must really let the great oat flavor and texture shine though.
Those look scrumptious. I cannot wait to make them.
Couldn’t be simpler, but they’re beautiful! Making me want some…
i can’t wait to make these. do you use regular or quick-cook oats?

Monica – I use regular oats, i have never tried it with quick oats but i would guess it would be ok. Let me know how they turn out.
So simple and pretty. These would be perfect treats to slip into my boys’ lunch boxes.
Oatmeal raisin is my favorite cookie! Thanks for sharing this beautiful recipe!
Oh those look so wonderful!
I’m an every kind of cookie fan and these look like they couldn’t be any easier. They look delishhh! 😉
Hi, these looked so good and always looking for that perfect oatmeal cookie, these came VERY close. I added a small apple that I grated and a few more raisins and 1more tabl of flour and extra tabl. Of oats. My 1st batch were a little soft but close to very well brown bottoms, taste was marvelous. I reduced the temp to 140 degrees and baked the same 11minutes and they were perfect! Will definitely make again. Thanks
