Butterscotch Salty Oat Cookies Recipe
- 3 1/4 cups (9 1/8 ounces) old fashioned rolled oats
- 1 1/2 cups (6 3/4 ounces) all purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- 16 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
- 3/4 cup (6 ounces) dark brown sugar
- 1/4 cup (1 3/4 ounces) sugar
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 large egg
- 11 ounces butterscotch chips
- Fleur de sel
- In a medium bowl whisk together oatmeal, flour, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
- In the bowl of an electric stand mixer beat butter until smooth. Add sugars and beat until fluffy, about 3 to 5 minutes. Beat in vanilla extract. Beat in egg until thoroughly combined. Add flour mixture and beat until just combined. Stir in butterscotch chips.
- Cover bowl with the dough with plastic wrap. Chill dough in refrigerator at least two hours and up to overnight.
- Move oven rack to the center position and preheat oven to 375u0b0 F. Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper. Roll a heaping tablespoon of dough into a ball and dip it into a shallow bowl of Fleur de sel or Kosher salt, so the coarse salt sits atop the ball. Place on cookie sheet, salty side up, leaving a couple of inches of space between the dough balls. Repeat with remaining dough. Bake until the edges of the cookies are golden brown, about 12 to 14 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes then transfer to a wire rack to finish cooling. Can be stored in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
