Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 115 grams unsalted butter
- 150 grams brown sugar
- 50 grams granulated sugar
- 1 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 120 grams all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 150 grams old-fashioned rolled oats
- 100 grams white chocolate chips
- 75 grams salted peanuts, roughly chopped
- 100 grams soft caramel bits
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line two large baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, use a hand or stand mixer to cream together the unsalted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter mixture and mix until fully incorporated.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined.
Stir in the rolled oats, white chocolate chips, chopped peanuts, and caramel bits using a spatula or wooden spoon, ensuring an even distribution.
Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden while the centers remain soft.
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days. Enjoy your decadent oatmeal cookies with a glass of milk or on their own!
