All great cookies start with butter! Here is an easy recipe for oatmeal cookies that are both crunchy and chewy at the same time. Think vanilla and coconut and oats. Try adding your favourite chocolate chips or raisins.
Pre-heat oven to 350 F
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper
Ingredients:
1 Cup unsalted butter, room temperature
1 Cup sugar
1/2 Cup brown sugar
1 Egg, slightly beaten
2 Teaspoons Vanilla
1 2/3 Cups unbleached flour
3/4 Teaspoon of baking soda
1/8 Teaspoon of baking powder
1/4 Teaspoon sea salt
1 Teaspoon Cinnamon
1 1/2 Cups Rolled Oats (I use the quick oats for these cookies)
1/2 Cup unsweetened coconut
Chocolate chips, or raisins (*optional)
Method:
Cream together butter and sugars
Add the egg and vanilla
Then sift together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt and cinnamon
Add to creamed mixture
Fold in the rolled oats and coconut, and chocolate chips or raisins if desired
Place large teaspoons of cookie batter on baking sheet
Bake for around 9-10 minutes depending how hot your oven is
They should be a little golden brown on top
These cookies are delicious with a glass of cold milk!
Enjoy!
