Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 170 grams unsalted butter
- 200 grams brown sugar, packed
- 50 grams granulated sugar
- 2 pieces large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 200 grams all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 150 grams old-fashioned rolled oats
- 200 grams semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 100 grams chopped nuts (optional, e.g., walnuts or pecans)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line a 9x9-inch baking dish with parchment paper, leaving an overhang to make removing the bars easier.
In a large microwaveable bowl, melt the unsalted butter. Allow it to cool slightly so it doesn’t cook the eggs when added.
Stir in the brown sugar and granulated sugar until well combined and smooth.
Add the eggs and vanilla extract to the butter-sugar mixture. Mix until fully incorporated and the mixture is creamy.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Fold in the rolled oats, semi-sweet chocolate chips, and chopped nuts (if using) until evenly distributed.
Spoon the dough into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few crumbs.
Remove from the oven and allow the bars to cool completely in the pan before lifting them out using the parchment overhang.
Once cooled, cut into 16 equal squares or bars. Serve and enjoy!
