How to Make Cinnamon Oatmeal Cookies
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) of softened shortening and 1 ½ cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add 2 large eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
- Stir in ½ cup molasses and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, combine 3 cups rolled oats, 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon ground cloves, ½ teaspoon salt, and 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Drop by rounded tablespoonfuls, about 2 inches apart, onto the prepared baking sheets.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are set.
- Remove from oven and let cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
