Oatmeal cookies are probably a descendant of Scottish oatcakes or pancakes. Oatcakes have been recorded as existing in Scotland at least since the Roman conquest of Britain in 43 AD, but probably existed before that time. Oatcakes have also been described as «the main Scottish bread for centuries». Jean Le Bel (circa 1357-60 AD) describes begardoc nuns making "little pancakes like communion bread". It is believed that this is the earliest description of Scottish oatmeal loaves.
In the early Middle Ages, traditional Scottish oatcakes had similar ingredients, but were and are crisper than modern oatcakes. The first recorded recipe for oatmeal cookies was published in the United States by Fanny Merritt Farmer in her 1896 cookbook «Boston Culinary School». Although Farmer's original recipe did not contain raisins, its inclusion in the recipe has become more common over time, partly due to the recipes for oatmeal cookies with raisins that have been in every box of the popular American Quaker Oats cookies since the early 1900s.
So, if you wanted oatmeal cookies, you don't have to go for it to the store. It is quite possible to cook it yourself from the available products spending very little time.
