Featuring the unique addition of ground oats and a hint of cinnamon, these cookies require chilling to develop perfect texture and flavor before baking. Ideal for cookie lovers seeking a classic, satisfying treat with a homemade touch.

Ingredients

Dry Ingredients

  • ½ cup old fashioned oats
  • 2 ¼ cups (279g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 cup (226g) unsalted butter, melted
  • ¾ cup (150g) brown sugar, packed
  • ¾ cup (150g) granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ teaspoon lemon juice
  • 2 large eggs

Add-Ins

  • 3 cups (510g) semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 ½ cups chopped walnuts

Instructions

  1. Grind Oats and Mix Dry Ingredients: Place the old fashioned oats in a small food processor or blender and grind them until powdery. Transfer to a medium bowl and whisk together the ground oats, all-purpose flour, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon. Set this dry mixture aside.
  2. Combine Wet Ingredients and Mix: In a separate bowl, stir together the melted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until smooth, either by hand or using a stand mixer. Add vanilla extract, lemon juice, and eggs, mixing on low speed until fully combined and smooth. Then gently fold in the dry flour mixture until just combined; the batter may appear slightly lumpy due to the ground oats. Finally, stir in the semi-sweet chocolate chips and chopped walnuts evenly throughout the dough.
  3. Portion and Chill Dough: Line a cookie sheet with wax paper, parchment paper, or a silicone baking mat. Using a ¼ cup measure, portion the dough into balls and place them on the sheet without spacing them apart, as this is just for chilling. Cover the dough tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to allow the dough to firm up and develop flavors.
  4. Prepare for Baking: When ready to bake, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone mats. Arrange the chilled dough balls spaced well apart on the prepared sheets. Use the palm of your hand to gently press down each dough ball slightly to flatten it.
  5. Bake Cookies: Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 13 to 17 minutes. Avoid overbaking; they are best when slightly underdone. You’ll know they’re done when the cookie edges turn a light golden brown and the centers are no longer glossy. Remove from oven and allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • Chilling the dough is essential to achieve the signature texture and flavor of these cookies.
  • Do not skip grinding the oats as it helps maintain the right crumb texture.
  • Use quality semi-sweet chocolate chips for the best taste.
  • Walnuts can be substituted or omitted if preferred.
  • Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week.
  • Cookie dough can be frozen for up to two months before baking.
