Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened

  • 1 cup granulated white sugar

  • 2 large eggs

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

  • 1/2 tsp baking soda

  • 1/2 tsp salt

  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

  • 3 cups old-fashioned oats

  • (Optional) 1/2 tsp cinnamon

  • (Optional) 1/2 cup raisins or chocolate chips


Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  • Cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy (2–3 mins).

  • Add eggs and vanilla; mix well.

  • In a separate bowl, whisk flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add to wet ingredients.

  • Stir in oats and optional mix-ins.

  • Scoop dough (about 2 tbsp each) onto prepared sheet.

  • Bake for 10–12 minutes until edges are golden.

 

  • Let cool on the pan for 5 mins, then transfer to a wire rack.

Notes

  • Room temp butter makes all the difference.

  • Add cornstarch (1 tbsp) for extra chewiness.

  • Chill dough for 15 mins for thicker cookies.

  • Applesauce swap: Use 1/4 cup per egg if egg-free.

 

  • Don’t overmix once oats go in—keep it gentle
