How to Make Oatmeal Butterscotch Walnut Cookie Bars

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 10x15x1 inch jelly roll pan or line it with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and ½ teaspoon salt.
In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Gradually add 1 cup packed light brown sugar and ½ cup granulated sugar, beating until well combined.
Beat in 2 large eggs one at a time, then stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Stir in 1 cup chopped walnuts, 3 cups rolled oats, and 2 cups butterscotch chips. Mix until evenly distributed.
Spread the dough evenly into the prepared pan.
Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs attached.
Let the bars cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares.
