  • 1 tsp. Baking soda
  • 1 tsp. Salt

Instruction

  • Preheat oven to 350 Degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper and/or spray with baking spray.
  • In a large bowl, cream the butter with a handheld or standing mixer. Add the raw and brown sugar and mix until fluffy. Add the egg and vanilla extract. Mix until well blended.
  • Add the flour one ½ cup at a time; add the baking soda, salt, cinnamon and nutmeg until well mixed. Add the orange zest and the oats. Fold in the chocolate chips, walnuts, and raisins if desired.
  • Use a cookie scoop and scoop out the batter and place on the baking sheet 1 inch apart. Bake for 8-10 minutes. Allow to cool for 5-10 minutes and use a spatula to transfer to a cooling rack. Store in an airtight container until ready to serve.
