Treat your ingredients with care...
- Oats — Use old-fashioned oats for the best texture in these cookies.
- Butter — Make sure the butter is softened to room temperature for easy creaming with the sugars.
- Brown sugar — Pack the brown sugar firmly into the measuring cup for accurate measurement.
- Cinnamon — Adjust the amount of cinnamon according to your personal preference for a stronger or milder flavor.
- Baking sheet — Line the baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent the cookies from sticking.
Tips & Tricks
- For a chewier texture, slightly underbake the cookies by reducing the baking time by 1-2 minutes.
- Add a handful of raisins, chocolate chips, or chopped nuts to the dough for extra flavor and texture.
- Allow the cookies to cool completely before storing them in an airtight container to maintain their freshness.
- Experiment with different spices such as nutmeg or cardamom to customize the flavor profile.
- Serve these cookies warm with a glass of cold milk for a nostalgic treat.
