Ingredients
Scale
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 large egg yolk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup rolled oats
- 1/3 cup chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350F (180C). Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
- In a medium bowl, beat together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until creamy.
- Mix in the egg yolk and vanilla extract until combined.
- Add the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon. Mix on low speed, gradually increasing to medium speed until just combined.
- Stir in the rolled oats and chocolate chips.
- Form the dough into balls, about 1.5 to 2 tablespoons each. Place on the prepared cookie sheet, about 2 inches apart.
- Bake for 11-13 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers look set.
- Remove from oven and let cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- For thinner cookies, measure 1/2 cup flour and remove 1 tablespoon. You can also lightly press the cookie dough balls before baking.
- Using a cookie scoop ensures evenly sized cookies.
- Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days.
