Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients:

  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 3 cups Quaker Old-Fashioned Oats (or Quick Oats for a finer texture)

Wet Ingredients:

  • 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
  • ¾ cup brown sugar, packed
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Optional Add-Ins:

  • 1 cup raisins or chocolate chips (for extra flavor)
  • ½ cup chopped walnuts or pecans (for a crunchier texture)

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Set aside.
  • In a large mixing bowl, cream together butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  • Beat in eggs, one at a time, followed by vanilla extract.
  • Gradually mix in the dry ingredients until just combined. Avoid overmixing!
  • Stir in Quaker oats and any add-ins like raisins or chocolate chips.
  • Using a spoon or cookie scoop, drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the baking sheet, spacing them 2 inches apart.
  • Bake for 8-10 minutes until the edges turn golden brown but the centers look slightly soft.
  • Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.

Notes

For chewier cookies, use more brown sugar and slightly underbake them. For a crispier texture, bake a couple of minutes longer and use granulated sugar instead of brown sugar. To maintain freshness, store cookies in an airtight container with a slice of bread to keep them moist.
