Indulge in these flavorful and chewy honey oatmeal cookies. Made with wholesome ingredients like oats, honey, and cinnamon, these cookies are perfect for satisfying your sweet tooth. The combination of the natural sweetness of honey and the nuttiness of oats creates a delightful texture and flavor. These cookies are easy to make and are a great option for a quick snack or a dessert for any occasion.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup honey
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3 cups rolled oats
  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon salt

Directions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and honey until light and fluffy.
  3. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
  4. In a separate bowl, combine the rolled oats, all-purpose flour, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, mixing well until fully combined.
  5. Scoop rounded tablespoons of cookie dough and place them onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  6. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges turn golden brown. The centers may still appear slightly soft, but they will firm up as the cookies cool.
  7. Remove the baking sheet from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  8. Serve and enjoy these delicious honey oatmeal cookies!
