Chewy Oatmeal Cookies
- 2 sticks (227 g) unsalted butter, at room temperature
- 1 cup (213 g) light brown sugar
- 1/3 cup (66 g) granulated sugar
- 2 large (113 g) eggs
- 1 teaspoon (5 g) vanilla extract
- 1 3/4 cups (210 g) all purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon (6 g) baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon (2 g) baking powder
- 1 teaspoon (4 g) fine sea salt
- 1 teaspoon (2 g) ground cinnamon
- 2 cups (199 g) old fashioned oats
- Preheat the oven to 350u0b0 F with racks in the upper and lower thirds. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream the butter and sugars on medium-low speed until light and fluffy, 4-5 minutes
- Add the eggs one at a time, mixing on medium speed until each one is fully incorporated. Add the vanilla and mix to combine. Scrape the bowl well.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon. Add to the butter mixture and mix on low speed until incorporated, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the oats and mix on low speed to combine, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Scrape the bowl well.
- Use a 1/4 cup (#16 scoop) to portion the cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheets. Stagger the cookies, leaving 1 1/2 inches between them to allow for spreading.
- Bake the cookies, rotating the sheets from front to back and top to bottom at the halfway mark, until evenly golden brown, 14-16 minutes. Transfer the cookies to wire racks to cool.
