Best 5 Salted Butter Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies Recipes

SALTY OATMEAL CHOCOLATE CHUNK COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line 3 sheet pans with parchment paper.
• In an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar on medium-high speed for 3 minutes, until light and fluffy. Scrape down the bowl with a rubber spatula. On low speed, add the vanilla, then the eggs, one at a time. Scrape down the bowl again.
• Meanwhile, sift the flour, baking soda, and salt into a medium bowl. Mix in the oats. With the mixer on low, slowly add the flour mixture to the butter-sugar mixture. Don't overbeat it! With a rubber spatula, stir in the chocolate and cranberries until the dough is well mixed. With a 1 3/4-inch ice cream scoop (or two spoons), scoop round balls of dough onto the prepared sheet pans. Sprinkle lightly with fleur de sel. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, until nicely browned. Serve warm or at room temperature.

SALTED-BUTTER OATMEAL CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

Steps:

• Whisk all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a medium bowl.
• Using an electric mixer on medium speed, beat butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar in a large bowl until light and fluffy, 3-4 minutes. Add eggs one at a time, beating after each addition to incorporate before adding the next. Reduce mixer speed to low and gradually add dry ingredients, beating until just incorporated. Add oats and vanilla and beat just to combine. Fold in chocolate with a spatula.
• Turn dough out onto a work surface and flatten to a disk. Freeze 15-20 minutes to prevent dough from spreading too much as it bakes, or ideally chill 24-36 hours.
• Meanwhile, place racks in upper and lower thirds of oven; preheat to 350°F. Line 2 rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper.
• Drop 1/4 cupfuls of dough onto prepared sheets. Bake cookies, rotating sheets front to back and top to bottom halfway through, until just golden brown around the edges, 12-15 minutes (cookies will firm up as they cool). Let cookies cool on baking sheets 5 minutes, then transfer to wire racks and let cool completely. Let baking sheet cool completely before lining with fresh parchment and spooning on dough for third batch.
• Do Ahead: Dough can be made 3 months ahead. Wrap tightly with plastic and freeze. Cookies can be made 1 day ahead. Store in an airtight container at room temperature, or freeze up to 3 months.

CHEWY CHOCOLATE CHIP OATMEAL COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
• In a large bowl, cream together the butter, brown sugar, and white sugar until smooth. Beat in eggs one at a time, then stir in vanilla. Combine the flour, baking soda, and salt; stir into the creamed mixture until just blended. Mix in the quick oats, walnuts, and chocolate chips. Drop by heaping spoonfuls onto ungreased baking sheets.
• Bake for 12 minutes in the preheated oven. Allow cookies to cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

BROWN BUTTER-OATMEAL CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

Steps:

• Melt butter over medium heat in a stainless steel saucepan (this is important so you can tell when the butter has browned.) Whisk frequently for several minutes. When you start to smell the nutty aroma of the butter browning, and see small browned bits at the bottom of the pan, immediately remove pan from heat and carefully pour browned butter into a large mixing bowl.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Whisk flour, oats, salt, and baking soda together in a bowl until well combined; set aside.
• Add both sugars to the bowl with the browned butter and beat with an electric mixer until smooth. Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating after each addition. Add vanilla bean paste and beat for 1 more minute. Add flour mixture in 3 batches, mixing well after each addition. Stir in chocolate chips.
• Using a 1 1/2 tablespoon spring-hinged scoop, scoop out dough and place 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until lightly browned, about 13 minutes. Transfer cookies to wire racks and allow to cool.

SALTED OATMEAL COOKIES

Steps:

• In the large bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the butter for a few minutes on medium-high speed until light and fluffy. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and add the sugars, baking powder, baking soda and cinnamon, beating until the mixture is well blended. Reduce the speed to medium and add the eggs and vanilla extract, mixing until well incorporated. Reduce the speed to low and add the flour and oats, scraping down the sides of the bowl as necessary and mixing just until they are incorporated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and chill the dough for at least an hour before baking.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Form the dough into golf ball-size balls and place about 2 inches apart on the baking sheet. Sprinkle sea salt generously on top of each ball of dough, as you would sugar. Bake 1 sheet at a time for 15 minutes or until the cookies are puffed and beginning to turn golden, being careful not to overbake. (The cookies should have a tender interior.) Transfer the cookies, still on the parchment paper, to a wire rack to cool completely.
