How to Make Our Favorite Oatmeal Cookies
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened unsalted butter and ¾ cup granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in 1 large egg and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- Scrape down the sides of the bowl and mix until completely combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and ½ teaspoon salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Stir in 3 cups rolled oats, 1 cup chopped pecans, and 2 cups chocolate chips.
- Drop by rounded tablespoons (or use a cookie scoop) onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
- Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are still slightly soft. The cookies will continue to set as they cool.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
