Ingredients
- 225 grams unsalted butter
- 100 grams granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 150 grams all-purpose flour
- 100 grams rolled oats
- 50 grams cornstarch
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 160°C (320°F) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, cream the unsalted butter and granulated sugar together until the mixture is light and fluffy. This should take about 2-3 minutes using an electric mixer.
Step 3
Add the vanilla extract and mix until incorporated.
Step 4
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, rolled oats, cornstarch, and salt.
Step 5
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the creamed butter and sugar mixture. Mix until the dough comes together and is evenly combined.
Step 6
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Gently roll it out to about 1/2 inch (1.3 cm) thickness.
Step 7
Use a cookie cutter or knife to shape the dough into desired pieces (e.g., squares, circles, or rectangles). Arrange the shaped shortbread pieces on the prepared baking tray, leaving a small gap between them.
Step 8
Using a fork, gently prick the surface of each piece to create a decorative pattern and to allow steam to escape during baking.
Step 9
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
Step 10
Remove from the oven and let the shortbread cool on the tray for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 11
Store the rolled oats shortbread in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week.
