This is based on my Chocolate Chip Cookies recipe but without the chocochips. I just balanced out portions between flour and instant oatmeal and added cinnamon powder. The dough will be tough, so you don't need a mixer. Instead, you must use a mixing spatula. And because the dough is tough, the cookies won't spread during baking. To cook it evenly, you have to press it with your wet fingers to form a cookie before baking. For my son, I just topped some cookies with chochips before baking - A cheat I learned over many cookie bakings 😜

Steps

1

Mix oatmeal, flour, baking soda, baking powder in a bowl. You can also add the choco chips here if you intend to make choco chip oatmeal cookies.
2

In a separate bowl, beat the eggs. Then mix in the sugars, oil, melted butter, cinnamon, and vanilla. If you are using unsalted butter, add a pinch to this step.
3

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients bowl. Mix well.
4

It will be so sticky. Once it can form to a ball, you can stop mixing.
5

Set a tray with baking paper. Scoop some dough and array your cookies. With wet fingers, press the cookies to make perfect flat round cookies. You can top some chocochips on this step if you opt to "cheat" those chips. 😁
6

Put the trays with cookies into the ref. While the cookies are in the refrigerator, preheat your oven to 200°C.
7

Put your tray into the oven and lower your temperature to 180°C. Cook for 8-10 minutes or take out when sides are starting to brown.
