Ingredients:

  • 1 cup (225g) unsalted butter, softened to 65°F
  • 1 cup (200g) dark brown sugar, packed
  • 0.5 cup (100g) granulated white sugar
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1 tbsp pure vanilla extract
  • 1.5 cups (190g) all-purpose flour, spooned and leveled
  • 3 cups (270g) old fashioned rolled oats
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 0.5 tsp sea salt
  • 1 cup (170g) semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two large baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone mats.
  2. In a stand mixer or large bowl, beat the softened butter, dark brown sugar, and granulated sugar on medium-high for 3 minutes until the texture is pale, voluminous, and resembles frosting.
  3. Add the eggs one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract, beating well after each addition until the mixture is glossy and smooth.
  4. In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cinnamon, baking soda, and sea salt.
  5. Set the mixer to the lowest speed and gradually add the dry flour mixture. Mix just until the flour streaks disappear.
  6. Using a spatula, fold in the old fashioned rolled oats and semi-sweet chocolate chips by hand until evenly distributed.
  7. Using a 2 tablespoon cookie scoop, drop rounded portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spaced 2 inches apart.
  8. Bake for 12 minutes or until the edges are golden brown and shattering, while the centers still appear slightly soft. Cool on the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
