Ingredients

• 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 cup rolled oats
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
• 3/4 cup honey
• 1/2 cup brown sugar
• 2 large eggs
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• Optional: chopped nuts or chocolate chips

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.

In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the flour, oats, baking soda, and salt.

Set aside.

In a large bowl, use an electric mixer to cream together the butter and honey until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.

Add the brown sugar and mix until well combined.

Beat in the eggs one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract.

Gradually mix in the flour mixture until just combined, being careful not to overmix.

If using, stir in chopped nuts or chocolate chips.

Scoop tablespoon-sized balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches of space between each cookie.

Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.

Remove from the oven and let cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Yield: 10 cookies

Notes

Use old-fashioned or dark brown sugar for a richer flavor.

If using nuts or chocolate chips, fold them into the dough gently to avoid crushing or breaking.

For a crisper cookie, bake for 12 minutes.

For a chewier cookie, bake for 10 minutes.

To ensure the cookies retain their shape, chill the dough for 30 minutes before scooping.

These cookies freeze well.

Let them cool completely before transferring to an airtight container or freezer bag.
