Ingredients
Scale:
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
2 cups old-fashioned oats
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
½ teaspoon salt
¾ cup unsalted butter, softened
½ cup granulated sugar
½ cup brown sugar, packed
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, oats, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Set aside.
In a large bowl, cream the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.
Add the eggs and vanilla extract to the butter mixture, mixing until well combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden but the centers remain soft.
Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
