Turn old-fashioned oats into a cookie that’s rich in fiber with a little sugar and cinnamon. Soft and chewy, slightly buttery with a satisfactory crunch!
Ingredients
Yield: 36 cookies
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened, (2 sticks)
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup brown sugar, light or golden
- 1 large egg
- 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 1 1/3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
- 2 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
- 1 1/2 cups trail mix
Instructions
- Move a rack to the center of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper then set aside.
- Cream butter and both sugars together about 5 minutes until light and fluffy. Add the egg and vanilla and beat until everything is completely incorporated, scraping down the sides of the bowl often.
- Sift the flour, salt, baking soda and cinnamon over the wet ingredients and mix just until combined. Add the rolled oats and 1 cup of trail mix and mix until completely incorporated.
- Place rounded Tbsp of dough on the baking sheet. Press each cookie to flatten slightly and decorate the tops with the remaining trail mix.
