So it all started when I was a little boy… Just kidding, here’s the recipe.
Ingredients
For one oven-sized baking sheet of cookies:
- 150 g of unsalted butter (less if you like dryer cookies, 100 g for example)
- 200 ml of sugar
- 400 ml of flour without baking soda
- 400 ml of non-instant rolled oats
- 1/2 tbsp of baking powder
- 1 tsp of salt
- 2 eggs
- 1 tbsp of vanilla essence (or more if you like vanilla a lot)
Mixing & Baking
- Mix the dry ingredients well, including the oats.
- Cut the butter in small chunks and place them over the mix.
- Crack the eggs and add the vanilla essence.
- Mix everything with your hands until homogenous, don’t use an electric mixer.
- Take little chunks of cookie dough and plop them on the baking sheet, press a little on the top so they are vaguely disk shaped.
- Bake at medium temp (I do not have a thermometer in my oven) and wait until the bottom of the cookies have a golden brown colour.
- Let them cool down, they taste better at room temperature.
Enjoy!
