Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and light brown sugar until light and fluffy using a hand mixer or stand mixer.
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter mixture and beat until fully incorporated.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, rolled oats, baking powder, and salt.
Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Using a small cookie scoop or a tablespoon, drop rounded spoonfuls of the 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 but the centers are still soft.
Remove from the oven and let the cookies rest on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve and enjoy your Swedish Oatmeal Drops with your favorite hot beverage or as a snack!
