  1. Preheat oven to 350˚F. Line a 8”x8” baking pan with parchment and set aside.
  2. Oatmeal cookie dough: In a mixing bowl whisk together flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Set aside.
  3. In another mixing bowl, cream together butter and sugars. Add eggs and vanilla and continue to mix together. Scrape down sides of the bowl and add dry ingredients. Stir together until well combined and a dough forms. Fold in oats until fully incorporated.
