Description
Deliciously chewy and filled with chocolate chips, these Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Cookies are perfect for any occasion.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups rolled oats
- 1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- ¼ teaspoon nutmeg
- ¾ cup unsalted butter, (room temperature)
- 1 ¼ cups light brown sugar, (packed)
- 2 large eggs, (room temperature)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon molasses
- 1 ½ cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup chopped pecans
- 1 cup sweetened flaked coconut
- flaky sea salt, (for sprinkling after baking)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F. Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, whisk together rolled oats, flour, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and nutmeg. Set aside.
- In a stand mixer with paddle attachment (or large bowl with hand mixer), beat butter and brown sugar on medium until smooth and creamy, about 2 to 3 minutes.
- Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in vanilla and molasses until fully combined.
- With mixer on low, gradually add the dry ingredients until just incorporated; don’t overmix.
- Stir in chocolate chips, pecans, and coconut by hand (or on very low speed) until evenly distributed.
- Using a 2-tablespoon scoop, drop dough onto prepared sheets, spacing cookies 2 to 3 inches apart.
- Bake 9 to 11 minutes, until edges are set and lightly golden but centers still look soft. (They will firm up as they cool.)
- Sprinkle the warm cookies with flaky sea salt. Let them rest on the baking sheet for 2 to 3 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- Make sure the butter is at room temperature for better incorporation.
- Resting the cookies on the baking sheet before transferring helps them set.
