Salty Oat Cookies Food

OATMEAL COOKIES WITH SEA SALT AND OLIVE OIL

Steps:

• 1 Preheat the oven to 325°.
• 2 In a large bowl, mix the egg, vanilla, water, honey and sugar. While mixer is still on low, slowly pour in olive oil. In a separate bowl, sift the flour, cinnamon, salt, oats, almond flour and baking soda together. Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet mixture and stir until well combined. Lightly mix in the chocolate chips until just incorporated.
• 3 Prep cookie sheet by spraying with Bertolli Extra Light Tasting Olive Oil. Drop about 2 tablespoons of the dough onto the cookie sheets, leaving at least an inch of space between them. Sprinkle cookies lightly with sea salt before baking. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges of the cookies start to turn golden brown.

NOVA SCOTIA OATCAKES

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 375 F. In a large bowl, combine the oats, flour, sugar, salt, and baking soda. Add the shortening or butter and use 2 knives, a large fork, or your fingers to work the fat into the dry ingredients.
• Pour in the hot water and stir until everything comes together into a thick, sticky dough.
• You can roll the dough out on a well-floured surface, cut it into shapes, and set them on a large baking sheet. Or keep things simple and simply press the dough into an even 1/4-inch layer on a baking sheet. Score this large "cake" into smaller pieces: Use a knife to cut the dough into squares or rectangles or whatever shapes you like, but don't bother to separate the pieces; the pieces will bake back together but be easy to cut or break along that original cut line.
• Bake until golden, about 12 minutes. You can take them out now for chewier oatcakes or reduce the oven temperature to 325 F and bake until lightly browned, about 10 more minutes, for crisper oatcakes.
• When they have finished baking, if you've cut them into shapes, let them cool; if you've scored them, cut them apart while warm so they cool into squares (or rectangles or triangles or whatever you've cut them into).
• Serve and enjoy.

SALTED-BUTTER OATMEAL CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

Steps:

• Whisk all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a medium bowl.
• Using an electric mixer on medium speed, beat butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar in a large bowl until light and fluffy, 3-4 minutes. Add eggs one at a time, beating after each addition to incorporate before adding the next. Reduce mixer speed to low and gradually add dry ingredients, beating until just incorporated. Add oats and vanilla and beat just to combine. Fold in chocolate with a spatula.
• Turn dough out onto a work surface and flatten to a disk. Freeze 15-20 minutes to prevent dough from spreading too much as it bakes, or ideally chill 24-36 hours.
• Meanwhile, place racks in upper and lower thirds of oven; preheat to 350°F. Line 2 rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper.
• Drop 1/4 cupfuls of dough onto prepared sheets. Bake cookies, rotating sheets front to back and top to bottom halfway through, until just golden brown around the edges, 12-15 minutes (cookies will firm up as they cool). Let cookies cool on baking sheets 5 minutes, then transfer to wire racks and let cool completely. Let baking sheet cool completely before lining with fresh parchment and spooning on dough for third batch.
• Do Ahead: Dough can be made 3 months ahead. Wrap tightly with plastic and freeze. Cookies can be made 1 day ahead. Store in an airtight container at room temperature, or freeze up to 3 months.

SALTY OATMEAL COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 (rack on the 2nd position from top).
• Slice "cold" unsalted butter into small pieces and whip in your mixer for a minute or so. Because it's cold it will stick a bit, but don't fret -- scrape and mix.
• Add both sugars, baking powder, baking soda and the cinnamon. With mixer combine at medium speed until the mixture has a crumbly texture.
• Add the eggs and vanilla and mix again until combined.
• With mixer on low speed, slowly add flour. If your mixer sounds like it's over-working, you may have to continue by hand and use a spoon.
• DON'T OVER MIX or cookies will get tough!
• Gently fold in the oats, and optional add-ins of chocolate chips or raisins.
• Chill the dough for at least an hour.
• Drop dough by the heaping tablespoon onto cookie sheet.
• "Lightly" sprinkle cookies with Kosher salt.
• Bake on 2nd rack from top at 375 for 12-15 minutes. (Cookies should still be soft to the touch).
• Carefully transfer them to a cooling rack and enjoy!

SALTED OATMEAL COOKIES

Steps:

• In the large bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the butter for a few minutes on medium-high speed until light and fluffy. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and add the sugars, baking powder, baking soda and cinnamon, beating until the mixture is well blended. Reduce the speed to medium and add the eggs and vanilla extract, mixing until well incorporated. Reduce the speed to low and add the flour and oats, scraping down the sides of the bowl as necessary and mixing just until they are incorporated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and chill the dough for at least an hour before baking.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Form the dough into golf ball-size balls and place about 2 inches apart on the baking sheet. Sprinkle sea salt generously on top of each ball of dough, as you would sugar. Bake 1 sheet at a time for 15 minutes or until the cookies are puffed and beginning to turn golden, being careful not to overbake. (The cookies should have a tender interior.) Transfer the cookies, still on the parchment paper, to a wire rack to cool completely.

SWEET 'N' SALTY OATMEAL COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
• Mix together the oats, coconut and cashews in a large bowl, then drizzle with the honey. Mix to combine, then spread on one of the prepared cookie sheets.
• Toast the mixture in the oven until the coconut begins to brown and the mixture becomes fragrant, about 8 minutes. Allow to cool about 10 minutes.
• Combine the flour, baking soda, salt and cinnamon in a medium bowl, then whisk in the toasted oat mixture. Set aside.
• Cream the butter, sugars and vanilla together in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment until sandy and smooth. Beat in the egg, then scrape the bowl and beater. Add the flour mixture and white chocolate chips and blend on low speed to combine. Scoop 2-tablespoon portions of dough on 2 lined cookie sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Flatten the cookies just slightly, then sprinkle each cookie with a touch of coarse salt. Bake until the edges are golden and the cookies are puffed, 12 to 15 minutes. Cool slightly on the baking sheets, then enjoy!

SALTY OATMEAL CHOCOLATE CHUNK COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line 3 sheet pans with parchment paper.
• In an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar on medium-high speed for 3 minutes, until light and fluffy. Scrape down the bowl with a rubber spatula. On low speed, add the vanilla, then the eggs, one at a time. Scrape down the bowl again.
• Meanwhile, sift the flour, baking soda, and salt into a medium bowl. Mix in the oats. With the mixer on low, slowly add the flour mixture to the butter-sugar mixture. Don't overbeat it! With a rubber spatula, stir in the chocolate and cranberries until the dough is well mixed. With a 1 3/4-inch ice cream scoop (or two spoons), scoop round balls of dough onto the prepared sheet pans. Sprinkle lightly with fleur de sel. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, until nicely browned. Serve warm or at room temperature.
