Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
In a medium saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over low heat. Once melted, remove from heat and stir in the brown sugar and granulated sugar until fully combined and the mixture is smooth.
Add the vanilla extract and stir in the egg. Mix well to incorporate.
Sift the all-purpose flour and salt into the mixture, stirring until smooth. Then fold in the rolled oats until evenly distributed.
Drop small spoonfuls of the batter (about 1 teaspoon each) onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them at least 2 inches apart to allow for spreading.
Bake for 8–10 minutes, or until the cookies are golden brown and edges are crisp. Be sure to monitor closely as they can burn quickly due to their thin nature.
Remove the baking sheets from the oven and let the cookies cool completely on the trays. They will firm up as they cool.
Carefully lift the cookies with a spatula once cooled and transfer them to an airtight container for storage. Enjoy your delicate oatmeal lacies!
