Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 115 grams Unsalted butter
- 150 grams Brown sugar
- 50 grams Granulated sugar
- 1 large Egg
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 130 grams All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking soda
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 60 grams Oat bran
- 120 grams Rolled oats
- 75 grams Raisins or chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the unsalted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar together until smooth and creamy.
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the bowl, and continue mixing until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a dough begins to form.
Fold in the oat bran and rolled oats until evenly incorporated. If using raisins or chocolate chips, gently stir them in at this stage.
Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, portion out dough balls and place them onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches of space between each cookie.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers may still look soft, but they will firm up as the cookies cool.
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them rest on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
