The very best oatmeal cookie
Makes about 4 dozen.
Ingredients:
- 1 1/4 cups (2 1/2 sticks) butter (salted is best) softened.
- 3/4 cups of packed brown sugar.
- 1/2 cups granulated white sugar.
- 1 egg.
- 1 teaspoon (2 teaspoons if you want a bolder flavor) of vanilla.
- 1 1/2 cups of gluten-free (one with *buckwheat flour will taste better) baking mix.
- 1 teaspoon of baking soda.
- 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon.
- 1/2 teaspoon of salt.
- 1/4 teaspoon (freshly) ground nutmeg.
- 3 cups of *gluten-free oats.
Heat oven to 375 F (190 C). In a large mixing bowl beat butter and both the white and brown sugars until evenly mixed. Add egg and vanilla; beat well with an electric mixer. Add flour, baking soda, cinnamon, salt and nutmeg; mix well. Add oats; mix on a low speed setting for about 1 minute or until all is combined.
Drop dough by rounded Tablespoonfuls onto a greased cookie sheet.
Bake for 10 to 12 minutes or until dark golden brown. Cool for 30 seconds take a metal spatula and un-stick the cookies, but leave them on the sheet to cool and crisp. after 5 minutes place on a cooling rack.
Serve with coffee for best results ;)
*Buckwheat is a completely gluten-free grain.
*Some oats are made in a factory that produces non gluten-free products.
Please follow my recipes identically I put a lot of work and testing into my recipes and the ones I post are the polished work.

I give this cookie a 50 out of 10. And yes, it is one of the best things I have put in my mouth. It has made me a fan of oatmeal cookies, which I was not before trying it.
