Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 113 grams Unsalted butter
- 150 grams Brown sugar
- 50 grams Granulated sugar
- 1 unit Large egg
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 120 grams All-purpose flour
- 0.5 teaspoons Baking soda
- 1 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoons Ground nutmeg
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 150 grams Rolled oats
- 1 cup Fresh apple, peeled and diced
- 0.5 cups Chopped walnuts (optional)
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until smooth and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the bowl, mixing until fully incorporated.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined.
Fold in the rolled oats, diced apple, and chopped walnuts (if using) until evenly distributed.
Use a cookie scoop or tablespoon to drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden but the centers are still soft.
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve immediately or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
