Ingredients

  • 1 cup (2 sticks / 227 g) unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup (200 g ) light brown sugar, packed
  • ½ cup (100 g) granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 ½ cups (187.5 g) all-purpose flour
  • 3 cups (270 g) quick oats
  • 2 teaspoons cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ¼ teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1 medium granny smith apple, peeled, cored, finely diced

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • To your stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, add the butter and sugars. Cream for 2-3 minutes, or until they are fully incorporated and fluffy.
  • Add in the eggs and vanilla and mix until combined, scraping the sides of the bowl as needed.
  • Turn the mixer off and add in the flour, oats, cinnamon, salt, and nutmeg.
  • With the mixer on low, mix until just combined.
  • Fold in apples.
  • Using a 2-tablespoon scoop, drop dough onto the parchment-lined baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches between each. Gently press down on the dough to slightly flatten.
  • Bake for 12-14 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The tops of the cookies may appear a little wet, but they will continue to bake out of the oven.
  • After allowing the cookies to slightly cool, move them to a cooling rack.
