Ingredients

- 2 cups rolled oats
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup brown sugar, packed
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup chopped nuts (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter, stirring frequently until it turns a deep golden brown and develops a nutty aroma. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, all-purpose flour, brown sugar, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt. Mix well.
- Pour in the browned butter and add the vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Stir until well combined. If you are using nuts, fold them into the mixture at this point.
- Using a tablespoon, drop rounded scoops of the dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each for spreading.
- Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown. The centers may look slightly soft but will firm up as they cool.
- Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
