  Method

  Take baking trays and spray them with oil to avoid the batter sticking on them or instead you can place the baking sheets on the trays. Once that is done preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  In a small bowl whisk flour, salt, cinnamon powder and baking soda and keep it aside for later use.
  Now take a large bowl and beat butter in it for a few seconds on a medium speed of your mixer (use hand mixer or electronic, depending on the availability) now add sugar in the bowl and beat till the mixture turns creamy. Add and beat one egg along with the vanilla essence to smoothen the mixture. Next step is to add the whisked small bowl combination in the large bowl creamy mixture and beat till it’s well integrated. Add raisins, nuts, oats and chocolate chips in the bowl and stir it slowly.
  Take a spoon to place the batter on the baking tray with suitable distance between them. With your oily or wet hands press down the cookies to give them shape and required thickness (0.5 cm).
  The cookies are ready to be baked in a preheat oven for about 15 min. let them cool for some time before removing them from the tray to avoid breakage.  If the cookies are too soft this means you have made some wrong measurements or the oven temperature was not set so avoid such mistakes and remember you can always check the cookies by pressing them in the middle and if they are not well spread you can assert a little pressure to give them proper shape.
