Ingredients

1 cup (2 sticks; 226 g) unsalted butter, (melted)
1 1/3 cups (284 g) firmly packed light brown sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
2 large eggs, (at room temperature)
2 1/2 cups (208 g) old-fashioned rolled oats; (use gluten-free if following a gluten-free diet)
1 1/4 cups (181 g) low FODMAP gluten-free all-purpose flour,
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup (170 g) miniature semisweet chocolate morsels
2/3 cup (75 g) chopped, toasted walnuts, (optional)
1/2 cup (83 g) raisins

Steps:

Position racks in upper and lower third of oven. Preheat oven to 325°F/165° Line 2 cookie sheet pans with parchment paper.
In a large bowl whisk together the melted butter and brown sugar until blended. Whisk in the vanilla, cinnamon and eggs until the mixture is smooth and well combined. Use a sturdy wooden spoon to stir in the oats, flour, baking soda and salt until blended. Stir in morsels and nuts, if using, and raisins.

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 10

Ingredients

1 large egg
1/2 cup unsalted butter (1 stick), very soft
1/2 cup light brown sugar, packed
1/4 cup granulated sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups old-fashioned whole rolled oats (not instant or quick cook)
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt, or to taste
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips, plus more for after baking (or substitute with raisins, walnuts, etc.)

Steps:

Preheat oven to 350F, line a baking sheet with a Silpat or spray with cooking spray; set aside.
To a large bowl, add the egg, butter, sugars, vanilla, and mix with a spoon aggressively for about 90 seconds, or until smooth and slightly fluffed, i.e. your bicep and shoulder should be burning if you've mixed well enough.
Add the oats, flour, baking soda, salt, and stir to combine.
Add the chocolate chips and stir to combine.
Using a 2-tablespoon cookie scoop, form mounds and place on prepared baking sheet spaced about 2 inches apart (I baked 12 cookies on the first sheet)
Bake for about 10 to 13 minutes (short for super soft cookies, longer for more well-done cookies), or until edges have set and tops are just set, even if slightly undercooked, pale, and glossy in the center; don't overbake. Cookies firm up as they cool.
Immediately upon taking the baking sheet out of the oven, add about 5 additional chocolate chips per cookie. Allow cookies to cool on baking sheet for about 10 minutes before serving. I let them cool on the baking sheet and don't use a rack.

Tips:

Use a large bowl: This will give you plenty of room to mix the ingredients and prevent the oatmeal from overflowing.
Don't over-mix the oatmeal: Over-mixing can make the oatmeal gummy.
Cook the oatmeal over medium heat: This will prevent the oatmeal from burning.
Stir the oatmeal frequently: This will help to prevent the oatmeal from sticking to the bottom of the bowl.
Add more liquid if needed: If the oatmeal is too thick, add a little more milk or water until it reaches the desired consistency.
Season the oatmeal to taste: Add salt, sugar, and other spices to taste.
Top the oatmeal with your favorite toppings: Some popular toppings include fruit, nuts, seeds, and yogurt.

Conclusion:

One-bowl oatmeal is a quick, easy, and delicious breakfast option. It's also a versatile dish that can be customized to your liking. With a few simple ingredients, you can create a satisfying and nutritious meal that will keep you going all morning long.
