Preheat the oven to 180°C (top and bottom heat). Line the baking tray with parchment paper. Weigh all the ingredients on a kitchen scale and set them next to each other — this will speed up the process and prevent mistakes.
Description
Soft, slightly crunchy oatmeal cookies infused with the tart sweetness of raspberries. This recipe combines traditional Polish oats with seasonal raspberries, creating a dessert perfect for afternoon coffee, a picnic, or as a healthier snack for kids. The cookies have a natural sweetness from vanilla sugar and optional honey, along with a pleasant texture from the combination of oats and flour. Served, they look rustic — golden edges, visible pieces of raspberry, and possibly bits of nuts for a contrast in texture.

Preparation steps
Preparation
Preparing the dough
In a large bowl, add rolled oats (150 g), wheat flour (120 g), sugar (80 g), vanilla sugar (8 g), baking powder (10 g), and salt (1 g). Use a wooden spoon or whisk and mix the dry ingredients thoroughly to evenly distribute the baking powder — mix for 30–45 seconds.
Melt the butter (100 g) in a small saucepan over very low heat or in the microwave in short bursts (10–15 s) until it is liquid but not hot. Pour it into a separate bowl and let it sit for 2–3 minutes to cool slightly. Crack the egg (60 g) into the bowl with the butter and whisk vigorously for 20–30 seconds until the mixture is smooth. If you are using honey (30 g, optional), add it now and mix.
Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients and mix with a wooden spoon just until the dry ingredients are combined — 20–30 seconds. The dough will be firm but not runny. If it seems too dry, add a tablespoon of cold water (15 g) and mix again.
Adding raspberries
Gently fold in the raspberries (200 g) into the batter with a spoon, being careful not to crush the fruit. Set aside 6–8 whole raspberries for decorating the top. If you are using frozen raspberries, add them chilled and mix for a shorter time.
Shaping the cookies
Using a tablespoon or a small ice cream scoop, scoop portions of the dough (about 35–40 g each) and place them on the prepared baking sheet, spaced 4–5 cm apart. Gently flatten each portion with a hand moistened with water or the back of a spoon — the cookies will not spread much in the oven.
Baking
Place the tray in the preheated oven and bake for 12–15 minutes at 180°C. Watch the edges — the cookies are ready when the edges are golden and the center is matte (not shiny).
Cooling and Finishing
Remove the baking sheet and let it sit for 5–7 minutes so the cookies can firm up slightly. After this time, transfer the cookies to a rack to cool completely. While the cookies are still warm, place the reserved raspberries on top and optionally sprinkle with chopped walnuts (40 g, optional) or drizzle with honey (optional).
Serving
Serve the cookies at room temperature. They pair wonderfully with buttermilk, plain yogurt, or a cup of strong coffee. If you like, serve with a spoonful of sour cream or vanilla ice cream.
Fun Fact
Oats were commonly used in the rural kitchens of Poland as a cheap and nutritious addition to dishes. Combined with forest fruits like raspberries, they created a simple dessert for peasants and highlanders.

Tips
Serve slightly chilled or at room temperature. A complement is natural yogurt, buttermilk, or a scoop of vanilla ice cream. For a flavor contrast, add lemon zest to the dough (1 g) or sprinkle the cookies with a bit of candied orange peel.
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. You can freeze raw dough balls on a baking sheet, and after freezing, transfer them to a bag and bake them from frozen for an additional 2–3 minutes. Reheat in the oven for 3–4 minutes at 160°C to regain freshness.
