Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon nutmeg
- 2 cups rolled oats
- ½ cup 1 stick unsalted butter, room temperature
- 1 cup light brown sugar, packed
- 2 large eggs, room temperature
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon molasses
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, add flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and rolled oats. Whisk to combine.
- To the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, add butter and brown sugar. Cream together on low speed until smooth.
- Add eggs, vanilla, and molasses. Mix,(stopping to scrape down the side of the bowl as needed), until all ingredients are fully incorporated.
- With the mixer still on low speed, slowly add the dry ingredients until fully incorporated.
- Scoop out the dough, using a 2-tablespoon scoop. Roll each into a ball and then place on the lined baking sheet and gently press to slightly flatten the cookies.
- Bake for 7-8 minutes. They may look slightly doughy, and that is okay.
- Let the cookies rest on the baking sheet for a couple of minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy!
