Servings: persons

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

1
Preheat the oven to 350u00b0 F with racks in the upper and lower thirds. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
2
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
3
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.
4
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.
5
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.
6
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.

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Preheat the oven fully and bake on the middle rack for the most even results.
Check for doneness a few minutes early — a toothpick in the center should come out with just a few moist crumbs.
Let it cool before slicing so it sets properly and holds its shape.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Use a neutral oil or a plant-based spread in place of butter for a dairy-free version.
Brown sugar instead of white sugar adds a deeper, more caramel-like flavor.
A good 1:1 gluten-free flour blend works well if you need a gluten-free version.
