Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 3 cups old-fashioned oats
  • 1 1/2 cups butterscotch chips

Instructions

  • Preheat the Oven:
    Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.

  • Cream the Wet Ingredients:
    In a large bowl, cream butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy. Add eggs and vanilla extract, beating until smooth.

  • Mix the Dry Ingredients:
    In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until well combined.

  • Add Oats and Butterscotch Chips:
    Stir in the oats and butterscotch chips until evenly distributed.

  • Form the Cookies:
    Drop tablespoon-sized balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

  • Bake the Cookies:
    Bake for 10-12 minutes, until the edges are golden brown but the centers are still soft.

  • Cool and Serve:
    Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • Chill the dough for 30 minutes before baking to make thicker cookies.
  • Swap the butterscotch chips for chocolate or white chocolate chips for a fun twist!
