Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 1 cup brown sugar, packed
- 0.5 cup granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs
- 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.5 teaspoons baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 2 cups quick oats
- 0.5 cup chopped walnuts (optional)
- 0.75 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 0.5 cup sweetened shredded coconut (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
In a large mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to cream together the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Mix in the vanilla extract and eggs, one at a time, until well incorporated.
In another bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add this dry mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Stir in the quick oats, walnuts (if using), chocolate chips, and shredded coconut (if using) until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Spread the dough evenly into the prepared baking dish, pressing slightly to ensure an even layer.
Bake in the preheated oven for 28-30 minutes or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove from the oven and allow the oatmeal bars to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.
Once cooled, cut into 16 squares or bars and serve. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
