Ingredients

• 1 cup unsalted butter
• 1 cup light brown sugar (packed)
• 0.5 cup granulated sugar
• 2 large eggs
• 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
• 1.75 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 0.5 teaspoon kosher salt
• 3 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
• 1 cup raisins (optional)
• 0.5 cup chopped walnuts or pecans (optional)

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, use a hand or stand mixer to cream together the unsalted butter, light brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 3

Beat in the eggs, one at a time, ensuring each is fully incorporated. Add the vanilla extract and mix until combined.

Step 4

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

Step 5

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

Step 6

Stir in the rolled oats using a spatula. If desired, fold in the raisins and/or chopped nuts for added texture and flavor.

Step 7

Using a tablespoon or a small cookie scoop, drop rounded dough balls onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the cookies are golden brown around the edges and slightly soft in the center.

Step 9

Remove the baking sheets from the oven and let the cookies cool on the sheets for 5 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 10

Enjoy your Rich Oat Cookies with a glass of milk or a cup of tea, or store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
