My COVID resolution in lockdown this year was to be a better baker – and these cookies are helping to make that goal a reality for me. I had a major success with my Crinkle Chocolate Chip Cookies and my easy 3-Ingredient Peanut Butter Cookies, so I wanted to attempt an oatmeal variety next.

What’s In These Cookies?

Rolled Oats
Flour: you can use all-purpose or a gluten free baking mix
Granulated Sugar
Brown Sugar
Cinnamon
Baking Soda
Butter
Eggs
Vanilla Extract

This is a fantastic pantry-staple recipe, made almost entirely with ingredients you already have in your pantry: oats, flour, sugar, and spices. If you don’t have an egg you can use an egg replacer, flax seeds, or just plain old apple sauce. And if you don’t have butter you can substitute vegetable oil too.

How Do I Make These Cinnamon Sugar Oatmeal Cookies?

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper and set aside.
In a large bowl, mix the dry ingredients: oats, flour, white and brown sugar, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Stir to combine.
Then add the wet ingredients: melted butter, eggs and vanilla extract. Mix into the dry ingredients until a cookie dough forms. Add the walnuts and stir again.
On the cookie sheet, roll 2 inch balls of dough for each cookie. Place evenly spaced on the baking sheet.
Bake cookies for 10-12 minutes. Remove from oven and allow to cool before eating.
