Oatmeal Pecan Cookies Food

OATMEAL PECAN COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F; lightly grease a baking sheet.
• If using old fashioned oats pulse them in a food processor a few times.
• Combine the oats, nuts, cinnamon, baking powder, salt and orange zest (if using) in a food processor, blender or a medium bowl (if using an immersion blender). Pulse until the nuts are finely chopped and evenly distributed. **You should end up with a fine meal. This is taking the place of flour**.
• Beat the butter and sugars in a large bowl until smooth.
• Add the egg, scraping the bowl and beating until smooth.
• Stir in the vinegar and vanilla, then the oat mixture.
• Drop the dough by 1/2 tablespoonfuls onto prepared baking sheet. (They don't spread much).
• Bake cookies for 10-14 minutes until the edges are barely browned.
• Remove them from the oven and let them cool on baking sheet for about 5 minutes.
• Transfer to rack or paper bag to cool completely.
• **Mine turned out as small round puffy soft and slightly chewy cookies**.

OATMEAL PECAN COOKIES

Steps:

• BUTTER PREP: Make sure the butter is at room temperature and not melted. Line a large sheet pan with parchment paper or a Silpat liner (without one, the bottoms tend to burn).
• WET INGREDIENTS: Cream together the butter, brown and white sugar until light and creamy, at least 3 minutes. Beat in the egg and vanilla.
• DRY INGREDIENTS: In another bowl, add the flour and cornstarch. To make oat flour, blend up regular oats in a blender or food processor until they resemble flour. Measure to get 1/4 cup and add that in. Add in the baking soda, fine sea salt, nutmeg, cinnamon and old- fashioned oats.
• COMBINE WET AND DRY: Add the dry to the wet and mix until just combined. Stir in the chocolate chips. Coarsely chop the pecans and add them in.
• CHILL DOUGH: Stir all the ingredients together, cover tightly and chill for at least an hour. These cookies don't bake well without being chilled.
• PREHEAT OVEN: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Scoop out balls of dough (if you have a food scale, make cookie balls about 1.8 ounces in size or about 2-1/2 tablespoons in size). Roll into even sized balls.
• CHILL AGAIN: Place balls of dough (no more than 8 cookies at a time; these cookies spread a lot) on the cookie sheet. Return the tray of cookies to the fridge for 10 minutes.
• BAKE: Bake for 10-15 minutes or until lightly browned at the edges (even if the center looks a little underdone -- cookies continue to bake after being pulled out of the oven). These cookies set up and become extremely delicious and chewy if they're slightly underbaked; they firm up more as they cool. (Err on the side of slightly underbaking for soft, chewy, and tender cookies!)
• MAKE 'EM PRETTY: Press some extra chocolate chips onto the tops of the cookies if desired. If desired, add a sprinkle of sea salt to the cookies. Cookies are best enjoyed within 2-3 days.
