Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 0.75 cup light brown sugar
- 0.25 cup granulated sugar
- 1 piece large egg
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 0.75 cup all-purpose flour
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 1.5 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, light brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter mixture, and beat until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Fold in the rolled oats and chocolate chips using a spatula or wooden spoon.
Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges just start to turn golden brown. The centers will still look slightly underdone, which ensures a chewy texture.
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet 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 a week.
