How To Make Subway Oatmeal Raisin Cookie Recipe

Step 1: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. This prevents the cookies from sticking and ensures even baking.

Step 2: In a large bowl, beat softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy — about 2–3 minutes. This creates a soft, chewy texture.

Step 3: Mix in the eggs one at a time, then add the vanilla extract. Stir until the mixture is smooth and well combined.

Step 4: In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and salt. Gradually add this dry mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring just until combined.

Step 5: Fold in the rolled oats and raisins until evenly distributed throughout the dough.

Step 6: Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Bake for 10–12 minutes, until the edges are lightly golden but the centers remain soft.

Subway Oatmeal Raisin Cookie Recipe Tips

• Use room-temperature butter and eggs – Ensures smooth mixing and soft, chewy cookies.
• Don’t overmix the dough – Mix until just combined to keep cookies tender.
• Measure flour correctly – Spoon into the measuring cup and level for accurate results.
• Soak raisins (optional) – Plump raisins in warm water or juice for juicier bites.
• Even scoops – Use a cookie scoop for uniform cookies that bake evenly.
• Watch bake time – Pull cookies when edges are golden but centers are soft.
• Cool on the pan briefly – Helps cookies set without breaking when transferring to a wire rack.

Storing, Freezing & Reheating Instructions

• Storing: Keep cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4–5 days. Layer with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
• Freezing: Place cooled cookies in a freezer-safe bag or container for up to 2 months. Freeze in a single layer or with parchment between layers.
• Reheating: Thaw frozen cookies at room temperature or warm in the microwave for 10–15 seconds to soften. For a fresh-baked feel, you can also reheat in a preheated 300°F oven for 3–5 minutes.

Subway Oatmeal Raisin Cookie Recipe Faqs

Can I make these cookies ahead of time? Yes! You can prepare the dough and store it in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours before baking.

Can I use quick oats instead of old-fashioned rolled oats? Old-fashioned oats give the best chewy texture, but quick oats can work if needed.

Can I make these cookies gluten-free? Substitute a gluten-free flour blend for the all-purpose flour to make the recipe gluten-free.

How can I make the cookies extra chewy? Slightly underbake the cookies and allow them to finish setting on the baking sheet.

Can I substitute raisins with other dried fruit? Yes! Dried cranberries, cherries, or chopped dates work well as alternatives.

How should I store leftover cookies? Keep them in an airtight container at room temperature for 4–5 days, or freeze for up to 2 months.
