Oatmeal lace cookies are delightful and crispy treats. Here’s a simple recipe for you to try:
Ingredients:
1/2 cup (115 g) unsalted butter
1 cup (200 g) brown sugar, packed
1/4 cup (60 ml) light corn syrup
1 cup (100 g) quick-cooking oats
1/4 cup (30 g) all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions:
Preparation:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
Combine Butter and Sugar:
In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Stir in the brown sugar and corn syrup. Cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture is smooth and the sugar is dissolved.
Mix Dry Ingredients:
In a separate bowl, combine the oats, flour, and salt.
Combine Mixtures:
Pour the butter-sugar mixture over the oat mixture. Add the vanilla extract. Stir until well combined.
Bake the Cookies:
Drop teaspoonfuls of the cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 3 inches apart as they will spread.
Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are set.
Cool and Enjoy:
Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to wire racks to cool completely. They will become crisp as they cool.
Store:
Store the oatmeal lace cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week. Enjoy with a cup of tea or coffee!
These oatmeal lace cookies are thin, crispy, and deliciously caramelized from the brown sugar and corn syrup, perfect for a sweet treat any time of day!
