Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup light brown sugar, packed
- 0.5 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 3 cups rolled oats
- 1.5 cups butterscotch chips
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, light brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. This should take about 2-3 minutes with a hand mixer or stand mixer.
Beat in the eggs one at a time, making sure they’re fully incorporated before adding the vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined. Avoid overmixing.
Fold in the rolled oats and butterscotch chips until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Press the dough evenly into the prepared 9x13-inch baking pan, spreading it out with a spatula or your hands.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the center is set. Be careful not to overbake; you want the bars to remain soft and chewy.
Remove the pan from the oven and allow the bars to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before cutting into 16 squares.
Serve and enjoy! Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
