How to Make Best Ever Oatmeal Cookies
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened unsalted butter, 1 ½ cups granulated sugar, and 2 large eggs until light and fluffy.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 3 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and ½ teaspoon salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Stir in 1 cup milk, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, 3 cups rolled oats, and 1 cup chopped pecans.
- Divide the dough into three equal portions.
- **Classic:** Drop by rounded tablespoons onto the prepared baking sheets.
- **Peanut Butter:** Add ½ cup creamy peanut butter to one portion of dough and mix well. Drop by rounded tablespoons onto the prepared baking sheets.
- **Pineapple:** Add 1 cup crushed pineapple (drained) to the remaining portion of dough and mix well. Drop by rounded tablespoons onto prepared baking sheets.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown and the centers are set. Do not overbake!
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
