Ingredients
UnitsScale
2cupsall-purpose flour
3/4cup quick oats (not rolled oats)
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon cream of tartar
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon salt
1cupbutter, softened
1/2cupbrown sugar
1/2cupgranulated sugar
1 whole egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Topping
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
2 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
Instructions
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
In a medium bowl, mix flour, quick oats, baking soda, cream of tartar, cinnamon and salt to combine.
In the bowl of a stand mixer with a paddle attachment, combine butter and both sugars and beat until fluffy. Add egg and vanilla and mix again.
With mixer running, slowly add dry to wet to form a thick dough. Mix just to combine. (Can also be done by hand with a wooden spoon).
Divide dough into 30 balls rolling by hand.
Line two cookie sheets with parchment paper.
Combine sugar and cinnamon in a medium bowl and roll each dough ball in sugar mixture then onto cookie sheets (15 per tray). Flatten just slightly leaving them thick.
Bake 8-9 minutes or until edges are firm and tops are golden.
Slide parchment onto cooling racks and after two minutes, use a spatula to remove from parchment then back onto racks to cool further. (The cookies come out puffy then deflate a bit as they cool.)
