4) Add the dry ingredients and mix together to combine but do not over mix,

5) Add the oats and raisins and just mix together for about 10 seconds. Just long enough to incorporate the raisins and oats.

6) With a rubber spatula, just give everything one last mix by hand from the bottom up, just to insure that all of the ingredients are combined.

7) Using a small ice cream scoop, drop the dough on to a non stick baking sheet, a couple inches apart.

8) Bake for about 9 to 11 minutes or until lightly golden.

9) Let cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
