1

50g butter, softened

50g light brown sugar

1 egg yolk

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

50g plain flour

½ teaspoon baking powder

¼ teaspoon salt

50g rolled oats

25g raisins

Preheat oven to 180°C/350°F/Gas Mark

Line a baking tray with parchment paper.

In a bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the egg yolk and vanilla extract until combined.

In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder and salt. Add this to the creamed mixture and mix until just combined. Stir in the oats and raisins until evenly distributed throughout the dough.

Using your hands or a spoon, form small balls of dough (about 1 tablespoon each) onto the prepared baking tray leaving enough space between them for spreading during baking. Flatten each ball slightly with your fingers or the back of a spoon before baking.

Bake for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown around the edges but still soft in the middle when touched lightly with your finger. Allow to cool on the tray for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely before serving or storing in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
