Oatmeal Cookies
Description
These Oatmeal Cookies start with creaming together butter and sugars until fluffy, which helps develop the cookie's tender texture. Eggs and vanilla add moisture and flavor, followed by sifted dry ingredients including flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon to offer leavening and spice. Rolled oats incorporated last provide chewiness and a hearty texture.
Shaping the dough into tablespoon-sized balls yields medium-sized cookies that spread moderately during baking. Baking for about 8 to 10 minutes at 375°F ensures that the edges turn golden while the centers remain softer, contributing to a chewy consistency.
This cookie features the familiar combination of sweet, spicy, and lightly nutty flavor from the cinnamon and oats, making it a comforting treat for snack times or dessert.
Ingredients
- 1 cup butter softened, unsalted
- 3/4 cup white sugar
- 1 cup brown sugar packed
- 2 large egg
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 cups flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 3 cups rolled oats
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees and in a stand mixer cream together the butter, sugar and brown sugar until lightened and fluffy before adding in the eggs and vanilla.
- Mix the flour, baking soda, salt and cinnamon together in a small bowl and add it into the stand mixer in small batches until it is all just combined, then add in the oats.
- Roll the dough in two tablespoon sized balls and bake for 8-10 minutes (the middles will look slightly undone, but the edges will have a hint of brown).
Notes
- Using softened unsalted butter helps achieve a fluffy creamed mixture essential for texture.
- Bake until edges are lightly browned but centers remain slightly soft for chewy cookies.
- Cinnamon adds warm spice that complements the oats; adjusting to taste is possible.
- Clicking instruction times can help monitor baking precisely for best results.
