Rustic oatmeal & walnut cookies

Author: Flavelo
Recipes Quick Meals Cakes and Desserts
The real, rustic 'oatmeal cookie'. Not the hard store-bought disc, but a treat that's crisp on the outside and chewy inside. The fibre of oats and richness of butter make a perfect pair, complemented by the crunch of walnuts. Unbeatable with a glass of milk.

Instructions

1 ✓

Mix dry ingredients: oats, flour, sugar, baking powder, walnuts, and dried fruit.

Tip: Fine oats hold the dough together better than jumbo oats.
2 ✓

Whisk eggs with a fork, mix in melted butter and vanilla.

Tip: Butter should be liquid but not hot, or eggs will scramble.
3 ✓

Pour wet mixture into dry, toss until everything is moistened.

Tip: Let stand 5-10 minutes so oats absorb moisture.
4 ✓

Form mounds on lined tray with wet hands or spoon. Flatten slightly.

Tip: Leave space between them as they will spread.
5 ✓

Bake at 180°C for 12-15 minutes until edges are golden brown.

Tip: Centre should be soft to touch! If hard there too, they'll be rock hard when cool.
6 ✓

Cool on tray for 5 minutes, then move to wire rack.

Tip: Very fragile when hot; needs time to set.

Recipe FAQ

Why did the cookie spread too much?
The butter was too warm when added, or the tray was hot. Chill dough for 30 minutes before baking.
Why is it hard?
Overbaked. Take them out when the centre still looks soft. They harden on the tray while cooling.
