Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 0.5 cup brown sugar, packed
- 0.25 cup granulated sugar
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1.5 cups rolled oats
- 0.75 cup chopped pecans
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat and set aside.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and ground cinnamon. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until fully combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Fold in the rolled oats and chopped pecans with a spatula until evenly distributed.
Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, drop rounded spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown. The centers may look slightly underbaked, but they will continue to set as they cool.
Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve and enjoy your homemade oatmeal pecan cookies!
