Ingredients
1 cup Unsalted Butter
1 cup Brown Sugar, packed
2 large Eggs, room temperature
1 tsp Pure Vanilla Extract
1 1/2 cups All Purpose Flour
2 cups Old Fashioned Rolled Oats
1 tsp Baking Soda
1 tsp Fine Sea Salt
Instructions
Place butter in a saucepan over medium heat and cook until browned, nutty, and fragrant, then cool to room temperature.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, rolled oats, baking soda, and salt.
In a large bowl, whisk the cooled brown butter, brown sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract until a thick, caramel-like mixture forms.
Fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture using a rubber spatula until just combined.
Form the dough into balls and place on a prepared baking sheet.
Bake at 350°F for approximately 12 minutes or until edges are crisp and centers are soft.
Notes
Ensure the brown butter is completely cooled before mixing with eggs to prevent curdling. You may add chocolate chips or chopped walnuts for extra texture. Store in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
