These Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies are soft, chewy, and perfectly balanced with sweet chocolate chips and nutty oats. They’re easy to make and great for lunchboxes, after-school snacks, or anytime your cookie craving hits!
1 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 cup brown sugar, packed
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
3 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
1 1/2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
Optional: 1/2 tsp cinnamon or 1/2 cup chopped walnuts
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
Cream butter and sugars: In a large bowl, beat butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until creamy and fluffy.
Add eggs and vanilla: Mix in eggs one at a time, then stir in vanilla extract.
Mix dry ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon (if using).
Combine: Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients. Stir in oats, then fold in chocolate chips and optional nuts.
Scoop dough: Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto baking sheets, spacing about 2 inches apart.
Bake: Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until the edges are golden and centers look just set.
Cool: Let cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack.
Don’t overbake—cookies will firm up as they cool.
Swap chocolate chips for raisins if you’re a classic oatmeal cookie fan.
These freeze great both as dough and after baking.
