Ingredients: 1/2 cup salted butter, softened; 3/4 cup light brown sugar; 1/2 cup granulated sugar; 2 large eggs; 1 tsp vanilla extract; 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour; 1 1/2 cups old fashioned oats or quick oats; 2 tsp ground cinnamon; 1/2 tsp baking soda; 1/4 tsp baking powder; 1/4 tsp sea salt

How To Make Classic Oatmeal Cookies

Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees and line a sheet pan with parchment. The parchment is not required but I love how easy it makes the cleanup. If you don’t use parchment, make sure to lightly grease with cooking spray.

In a large bowl, beat together the softened butter and sugars with a hand mixer or stand mixer. Then add in the eggs and vanilla extract and beat well. Then the flour, oats, ground cinnamon, baking soda, baking powder and salt.

Now, using a cookie scoop or a tablespoon, measure heaping tablespoons and place on cookie sheet. I was able to fit about a dozen per cookie sheet.

Bake for about 12 minutes, not letting the bottoms burn but letting them brown. Make sure the centers are baked, cookies will look soft. Transfer to wire rack to cool and repeat with remaining cookie dough.

Hope you enjoy!!
