Flat Chewy Small Batch Oatmeal Cookies
Big Flat Chewy Oatmeal Cookies are made without brown sugar, but they still have a rich, cinnamon-y flavor. These are very large cookies so the bake time is actually around 18 minutes, though it might vary from oven to oven. If you make them smaller, adjust baking time.

- Mix flour, oats, sugar, salt, soda and cinnamon together in a mixing bowl.
- Add the softened butter and mash it in with the dry ingredients, mixing with a spoon or heavy duty scraper until the dry ingredients are moistened and butter is well distributed. Stir in the vanilla and egg. When well mixed, add the raisins and pecans.
