Ingredients

• 1 cup All-purpose flour
• 1.5 cups Old-fashioned rolled oats
• 0.5 teaspoons Baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 0.75 cups Unsalted butter, softened
• 0.75 cups Brown sugar, packed
• 0.25 cups Granulated sugar
• 1 piece Large egg
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.75 cups Chopped hazelnuts
• 0.5 cups Semi-sweet chocolate chips (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, rolled oats, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, use a hand or stand mixer to beat the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 4

Add the egg and vanilla extract to the wet mixture and mix until fully incorporated.

Step 5

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing on low speed until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

Step 6

Fold in the chopped hazelnuts and, if desired, the semi-sweet chocolate chips.

Step 7

Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

Step 8

Lightly flatten each cookie dough ball with the back of a spoon or your fingers to ensure even baking.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers appear just set.

Step 10

Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 11

Serve the cookies once cooled and enjoy! Store any leftovers in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
