Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 113 grams Unsalted butter
- 150 grams Brown sugar, packed
- 50 grams Granulated sugar
- 2 pieces Large eggs
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 120 grams All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground nutmeg
- 0.25 teaspoons Ground ginger
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 180 grams Rolled oats
- 120 grams Optional mix-ins (chopped nuts, raisins, or chocolate chips)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 9x13-inch (23x33 cm) baking pan with parchment paper, ensuring some paper overhangs for easy removal.
In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Remove from heat and stir in the brown sugar and granulated sugar until smooth and combined.
Let the mixture cool slightly before whisking in the eggs, one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, salt, and baking powder.
Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.
Gently fold in the rolled oats and any optional mix-ins you like, such as chopped nuts, raisins, or chocolate chips.
Spread the batter evenly into the prepared baking pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Bake for 22-25 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
Allow the bars to cool completely in the pan before lifting them out using the parchment paper overhang.
Cut into 12 squares or rectangles and enjoy!
