With this easy oatmeal cookies recipe, you will have fewer dishes to clean, there’s no time required for softening butter, chilling the cookie dough is optional, and you can freeze the cookie dough for cookies another day. I love these easy oatmeal cookies so much!
If you have an extra five minutes to spare when making these cookies, try browning your butter before adding it to the cookie batter. Browned butter adds a nutty richness to the cookies. I’ve provided instructions below, or you can see my recipe for brown butter.
