Ingredients

• 115 grams unsalted butter
• 100 grams light brown sugar
• 50 grams granulated sugar
• 1 unit large egg
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 125 grams all-purpose flour
• 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 150 grams rolled oats
• 75 grams raisins (optional)
• 75 grams chocolate chips (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, light brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 3

Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until fully combined.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and salt.

Step 5

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined.

Step 6

Fold in the rolled oats and your choice of optional add-ins, such as raisins or chocolate chips.

Step 7

Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, portion out dough balls and place them onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

Step 8

Gently flatten each dough ball slightly with your fingers or the back of a spoon.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown. The centers may look slightly underbaked but will firm up as they cool.

Step 10

Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 11

Store the Oaties in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week.
