Oatmeal Scotchies Recipe
Description
The Oatmeal Scotchies Recipe features a dough made by creaming room temperature butter with brown sugar, mixing in egg and vanilla for moisture and flavor, then adding a combination of all-purpose flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, oats, and butterscotch chips. The dough balls are moderately sticky and sized between 1 to 1.5 inches before spacing on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Baking at 350°F for 10 to 14 minutes produces cookies with edges that begin to brown while the centers set, achieving a balance of soft chewiness and slight crispness at the edges. The oats provide a hearty texture, and the butterscotch chips add pockets of soft caramel-like sweetness throughout.
These cookies can be served as a sweet treat alongside coffee or tea and hold together well due to the oats and balanced flour ratio. They are suited for making a batch to share or to keep on hand for satisfying a sweet craving.
No additional notes were provided, so basic handling and cooling on a wire rack are recommended to allow the cookies to firm up properly after baking.
Ingredients
- 3/4 c butter room temp
- 1 1/2 c brown sugar
- 1 egg
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 c all-purpose flour
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 2 1/4 c old fashioned oats
- 2 c butterscotch
Instructions
- Line your baking sheet with parchment paper and preheat your oven to 350°F.
- Use a stand mixer and add butter and brown sugar to the bowl. Set it to medium speed and beat until the mixture is fluffy (about 2 minutes).
- Add the egg and vanilla. Beat for another minute.
- Add the flour to the bowl and sprinkle the baking powder, baking soda and salt over the top Mix until combined.
- Mix in the oats and then add the butterscotch chips. Mix until combined.
- Use a spoon and your hands to roll out 1 inch to 1.5 inch dough balls. The mixture will be a little sticky, but not to much that you can roll out balls. If you need to, you can add 1 tbsp of flour at a time until the dough is manageable, but be sure you don't add too much extra flour.
- Place the dough balls 2 inches apart on the baking sheet. Bake for 10-14 minutes until the centers set and the edges begin to brown.
- Allow them to cool on a wire rack. Enjoy
