Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup (230g) unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup (200g) brown sugar, packed
- 1/2 cup (100g) granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs, room temperature
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups (190g) all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 3 cups (240g) old-fashioned oats
- 1 1/2 cups (270g) chocolate chips (semi-sweet or dark)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line your baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to beat 1 cup (230g) of softened unsalted butter, 1 cup (200g) of brown sugar, and 1/2 cup (100g) of granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
- Beat in 2 large eggs, one at a time, followed by 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract. Mix until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups (190g) all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing just until combined. Do not overmix.
- Stir in 3 cups (240g) old-fashioned oats and 1 1/2 cups (270g) chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
- Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown. The centers may look slightly underbaked.
- Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a cooling rack.
