Ingredients: 1 1/ 4 c. softened butter or margarine 3/ 4 c. packed brown sugar 1/ 2 cup granulated sugar 1 egg 1 tsp. vanilla 1 1/ 2 c. all-purpose flour 1 tsp. baking soda 1/ 2 tsp. salt 1 tsp. cinnamon 1/ 4 tsp. nutmeg 3 c. rolled oats Steps: 1. Heat oven to 375 degrees F and line some cookie sheets with baking parchment - or grease some cookie sheets, or use nonstick cookie sheets. 2. Beat together butter or margarine and sugars in a large bowl until creamy. (Images 1 to 2) 3. Add egg and vanilla and beat well. 4. Combine flour, baking soda, salt and spices in a smaller bowl. 5. Add flour mixture to the butter/ sugar mixture and blend well. 6. Stir in oats. (Image 3) 7. Drop dough by rounded tablespoons onto cookie sheet. (Image 4) 8. Bake 8 to 9 minutes for a chewy cookie or 10 to 11 minutes for a crisp cookie. 9. Cool 1 minute on cookie sheet, then remove to wire rack. 10. Cool completely and store in tightly covered container. Tips: If you're on a low-sodium diet, you can omit the salt. To make bar cookies, press dough onto the bottom of an ungreased 9-by-13-inch baking pan. Bake 25 to 30 minutes, or until light golden brown. Cool completely, then cut into bars. For variation, add 1 cup raisins or chopped nuts or stir in 1 cup semisweet chocolate, butterscotch, or peanut butter chips and omit the spices.
