Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup 2 sticks unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup brown sugar packed
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 3 cups Quaker Old-Fashioned Oats
  • Optional: 1 cup raisins chocolate chips, or chopped nuts

Equipment

  • Mixing bowls
  • Electric mixer or hand whisk
  • Baking sheets
  • Parchment paper or non-stick spray
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Wire cooling rack

Method
 

  1. Oven: Preheat your oven to 350 degrees pitch (175 degrees Celsius). Parchment-line sheets or grease lightly.
  2. For the Wet Mix: In an oversized mixing bowl, cream the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until the milk is white and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition, then beat in the vanilla extract.
  3. Mix Dry Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture in batches gradually, mixing just until combined.
  4. Add Oats and Mix-Ins: Fold the oats and any mix-ins (raisins, chocolate chips, or nuts, if using).
  5. Drop and Shape the Cookies: Using a rounded tablespoonful for each cookie, drop dough onto prepared baking sheets, spacing cookies about 2 inches apart.
  6. Bake: Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers should still look slightly soft.
  7. Cool: Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

For chewier cookies, slightly underbake them.
You can refrigerate the dough for 30 minutes to help the cookies hold their shape better during baking.
