Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 120 g Old-fashioned rolled oats
- 30 g All-purpose flour
- 100 g Granulated sugar
- 100 g Light brown sugar
- 113 g Unsalted butter
- 60 ml Heavy cream
- 1 tsp Vanilla extract
- 0.25 tsp Salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
In a medium bowl, mix together the rolled oats, all-purpose flour, and salt. Set aside.
In a medium saucepan, combine the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and heavy cream. Heat over medium heat until the butter has melted and the mixture comes to a gentle boil, stirring frequently.
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
Pour the wet mixture over the dry ingredients in the bowl and stir until fully combined.
Using a teaspoon or a small cookie scoop, drop rounded teaspoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets. Leave about 5 cm (2 inches) of space between each cookie as they will spread significantly during baking.
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown. Keep a close eye on them to prevent over-baking.
Remove the baking sheets from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the sheets for about 5 minutes. Then, carefully transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days. Enjoy their crisp, caramelized texture!
