Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper.
In a large microwave-safe bowl, melt the unsalted butter. Allow it to cool slightly.
Add the brown sugar and granulated sugar to the melted butter. Mix until smooth and creamy.
Stir in the eggs and vanilla extract until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Fold in the rolled oats, chocolate chips, and chopped nuts (if using) until evenly distributed.
Spread the batter evenly into the prepared baking pan.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
Remove the pan from the oven and let the cookie bars cool completely on a wire rack before slicing into squares or rectangles.
Store the cookie bars in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
