Small Batch Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies

Brooke Homec
These small batch oatmeal chocolate chip cookies are the perfect combination of a chewy and crispy cookie, loaded with oats, chocolate, a bit of cinnamon, and some flaked salt to top them off.

Ingredients
 

  • ¼ cup (56.75 g) butter room temp
  • ¼ cup (55 g) brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg yolk
  • ½ teaspoon (0.5 teaspoon) vanilla
  • ¼ teaspoon (0.25 teaspoon) cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon (0.25 teaspoon) salt
  • ¼ teaspoon (0.25 teaspoon) baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon (0.25 teaspoon) baking soda
  • ½ cup (70 g) all-purpose flour
  • ⅔ cup (60 g) old-fashioned oats
  • ⅓ cup (58.33 g) chopped chocolate bar or chocolate chips
  • flaked sea salt for topping

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350 F. Line a baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
  • Place the butter and sugars in a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. Beat on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, 3 to 4 minutes.
  • Add egg yolk and vanilla, mix until smooth on low speed.
  • Slowly mix in cinnamon, salt, baking powder, baking soda and flour, being careful not to over mix. I usually stop when I still have some flour remnants around the bowl. Add oats and mix on low until incorporated. Fold in chocolate chunks or chips.
  • Scoop the dough into desired size cookie balls. I like to use a 4 tablespoon scoop for these. Top with flaked salt.
  • Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges start to turn golden brown. Top with a little extra salt flakes.

Notes

Feel free to substitute with any kind of chocolate, dried fruit, nuts or leave it all out for a basic oatmeal cookie.
I have given both cups and grams as measurements. Grams will be more precise, especially when measuring flour. If you don’t have a kitchen scale, no problem! Just lightly spoon flour into your measuring cup to insure its not packed in there. Light and fluffy is the key.
