Chewy Oatmeal Cookies
INGREDIENTS
butter |
|
brown sugar |
|
granulated sugar |
|
large eggs |
|
pure vanilla extract |
|
all-purpose flour |
|
salt |
|
baking soda |
|
baking powder |
|
old-fashioned oats |
|
of cinnamon (optional) |
INSTRUCTIONS Preheat the oven to 350degF. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or silicone mat.
Cream the butter and sugars in a large mixing bowl. Add eggs and vanilla and mix until combined.
Add flour, salt, baking soda, baking powder (and cinnamon if desired). Stir just until combined. Then mix in the oats.
Use a medium cookie scoop and scoop onto the prepared baking sheets. Bake for 7-10 minutes, or until the edges are just light golden brown (the centers should look a little underdone). Take them out a little early for softer cookies and bake a little longer for crispier cookies.
Let cookies rest on pan for 2 minutes and then transfer to a cooling rack.
