Ingredients
- 1 cup butter
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup brown sugar firmly packed
- 2 eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 1/2 cups flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 3 1/2 cups old-fashioned oats or rolled oats
- 1 granny smith apple
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a large bowl or electric mixer, blend butter, sugar, and brown sugar. Add eggs and vanilla and beat until creamy and smooth.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.
- Add this dry mixture to the butter/sugar mixture and blend well. Mix in the oats.
- Peel and finely dice the apple. You should get about 1 cup of apple pieces.
- Stir the apple pieces into the dough.
- Roll dough into 1-inch balls and place evenly on a lined cookie sheet.
- Bake for 12 minutes or until lightly browning on the edges of the cookies. Let cool for 5 minutes on the baking sheet and then transfer to a cooling rack.

Notes
- The cookies will look a little unbaked on the top when they come out, but they will continue to cook on the pan.
- This oatmeal cookie recipe is a great base for other mix-ins like butterscotch chips, chocolate chips, or raisins. If you use a mix-in other than apples, just bake for 10 minutes instead of 12.
- These cookies freeze really well! Just place the baked and cooled cookies in a freezer bag or airtight container.
