Directions

  1. Arrange racks in upper and lower thirds of oven; preheat to 350°. In a large bowl, whisk flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt.

  2. In the large bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment (or in a large bowl using a handheld mixer), beat butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar on medium-high speed until creamy. Add egg and beat until incorporated. Add vanilla and beat to combine.

  3. Add dry ingredients and beat on medium-low speed until just a few dry streaks remain. Add oats and beat until well combined.

  4. Using a medium cookie scoop (about 3 Tbsp.), scoop dough onto 2 parchment-lined baking sheets, spacing 2" apart.

  5. Bake cookies, rotating trays top to bottom halfway through, until golden brown and edges are set, 10 to 12 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes on sheets, then transfer cookies to a wire rack and let cool completely.
