Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter
- 0.5 cup brown sugar, packed
- 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
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 1.5 cups rolled oats
- 0.5 cup wheat bran
- 0.75 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 butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy using a hand mixer or stand mixer on medium speed (around 2-3 minutes).
Beat in the egg and vanilla extract, mixing until well incorporated.
In a smaller bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add this dry mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined.
Fold in the rolled oats, wheat bran, and chocolate chips using a spatula or wooden spoon, ensuring an even distribution.
Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing each cookie about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges appear golden brown but the centers remain soft.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the cookies cool on the sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week, or freeze for longer storage.
