1 1/4 cups of butter (2 1/2 sticks)
3/4 c. firmly packed brown sugar
1/2 c. granulated sugar
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla
1 1/2 c. all purpose flour
1 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp nutmeg
3 c. oatmeal (Tiffani uses 1 1/2 c. old-fashion oats and 1 1/2 c. quick oats - both are from the cannery)
Variations:
Oatmeal Raisin: Add 1 1/2c. raisins
Oatmeal Raisin & Nuts: Add 1 c. raisin and 1 c. chopped pecans or walnuts
Oatmeal Chocolate Chip: Add 2 c. chocolate chips (this is our kids favorite)
Oatmeal Chocolate Chip & Nuts: Add 2 c. chocolate chips and 1 c. nuts
Heat the oven to 375 F. Beat together butter and sugars until creamy. Add egg and vanilla; beat well. Add combined flour, baking soda, salt and spices; mix well. Stir in oatmeal; mix well. Add raisins, nuts or chocolate chips as desired. Drop by rounded tablespoons onto an ungreased cookie sheet. Bake 8-9 minutes for a chewy cookie and 10-11 minutes for a crisp cookie. Cool at least 1 minute on cookie sheet; remove to wire rack to cool completely. Store in tightly covered container. Makes about 4 dozen (depending on the size of the cookies you make).
The Quaker cookbook also says this can be put in an 13x9 baking pan for bar cookies. Bake 25-30 minutes or until golden brown. We have never done this, but I think it would be very good too! Enjoy!
