directions

  • Set butter out on counter to soften.
  • Heat oven to 300°F Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Assemble other ingredients needed.
  • In a food processor, pulse 2 cups of the oatmeal untl finely ground.
  • In a mixer, cream butter until smooth. Mix in sugar then add the vanilla and eggs. Mix well until all ingredients are incorporated.
  • In another bowl, whisk together ground and whole oatmeal, baking soda and salt. With the mixer on low, add dry ingredients gradually and mix only until the dry ingredients have become moist. Stop mixer and scrape sides and bottom well and mix with the scraper to incorporate any wayward ingredients.
  • Remove bowl from mixer stand and stir in chips till blended inches
  • Drop by spoonfuls onto pan, leaving 2 to 3 inches between them and the edge. These will spread so don't skimp on the space between cookies. Bake for 13-15 minutes, until lightly browned. Remove sheet of parchment paper to cooking rack and bake remaining cookies. I'm not sure how many this made, I'll have to make again and note the size scoop I used and the amount they made. If anyone gets this info, zmail me and I'll change the yield to reflect the proper amount made. I'm guessing 2 dozen cookies.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I've lived in several states, and they have all added a bit of "flavor" to my culinary preferences. I love comfort food and as I've aged, I seek ways to make old favorites more healthy. For me, healthy is defined by what we have learned about gut health over the years. I no longer cook the way I used to, but I still crave those old favorites. It's quite likely that something I posted here more than a decade ago is no longer made in my kitchen, or has been greatly altered to fit our new model. I appreciate it when people take the time to post great recipes because the internet is so much quicker and convenient to use than my stash of cookbooks, cherished as they are. I also appreciate reading reviews that people post, providing they are actually helpful. I just don't understand rudeness, competitiveness and the like and wish people didn't feel the need to inject negative attitudes into all the positive. I feel a site like this one can help many people and it's a great way to collaborate and share treasures in our kitchens. I'm glad to have access and to be a part of the community.
