Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour plus 2 tbsp
  • 1 tsp cornstarch
  • ½ tbsp baking powder
  • ¼ tsp baking soda
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • ¼ tsp ground nutmeg
  • 8 tbsp butter softened
  • ½ cup brown sugar packed
  • ¼ cup sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tbsp milk

Equipment

  • Oven
  • Baking sheets
  • Parchment paper or baking mats
  • Food processor
  • Mixing bowls
  • Electric mixer
  • Cookie scoop
  • Wire rack

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line your baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. Add the oats to a food processor and pulse about 10-12 times to achieve a mix of ground and whole oats.
  3. In a medium bowl, whisk together the ground oats, flour, cornstarch, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
  4. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter, brown sugar, sugar, and vanilla extract on high speed until light and fluffy (about 2 minutes). Add the egg and mix until incorporated.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture with the mixer on low speed and mix until just combined. Refrigerate the dough for 20-30 minutes.
  6. Using a cookie scoop, form balls of dough and place them on the prepared baking sheets. Bake for 10-14 minutes until the edges are golden brown.
  7. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 3 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  8. In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and milk to make the glaze. Dip the tops of the cooled cookies in the glaze and let it set for about 30 minutes.

Notes

For a unique twist, add a pinch of cardamom to the glaze for extra flavor. Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days or freeze for up to 3 months. If cookies lose crispness, reheat in the oven at 350°F for about 5 minutes for freshness.
