Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups old fashioned oats
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour (plus 2 tablespoons of flour)
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/8 tsp salt
Wet Ingredients
- 1/2 cup butter (at room temperature)
- 1/2 cup Biscoff Spread or Cookie Butter
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup light brown sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat Oven and Prepare Baking Sheet: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat to prevent sticking.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the oats, 1/2 cup flour, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and salt until evenly combined. Set aside.
- Cream Butter, Biscoff Spread, and Sugars: Using a stand mixer, beat the room temperature butter, Biscoff spread, granulated sugar, and light brown sugar on medium speed until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
- Add Egg and Vanilla: Add the large egg and vanilla extract to the creamed mixture, and continue to beat until fully incorporated and smooth.
- Incorporate Dry Ingredients: Lower the mixer speed to low, then gradually add the dry ingredients, mixing only until just blended to maintain a tender texture in the dough.
- Chill the Dough: Cover the dough and chill it in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to firm up, allowing easier handling and better texture during baking.
- Shape and Bake Cookies: Form the chilled dough into rounded tablespoons and arrange them 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheet to allow room for spreading. Bake at 350 degrees F for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the cookies are golden and firm around the edges.
- Cool Cookies: Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes after baking to set, then transfer them to a cooling rack to cool completely before serving.
Notes
- Make sure the butter is at room temperature for easier creaming with the sugars.
- Chilling the dough helps prevent excessive spreading while baking and enhances flavor.
- If you prefer a crunchier texture, bake the cookies an additional 1-2 minutes but watch closely to avoid burning.
- Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days or freeze for longer keeping.
