Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
In a large bowl, use an electric mixer to cream the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Beat in the egg and vanilla extract, mixing until fully incorporated.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, rolled oats, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips using a spatula.
Scoop dough into tablespoon-sized portions and place them onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers look slightly underbaked. Do not overbake; 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 these wholesome, delicious cookies with a glass of milk or your favorite beverage!
