Ingredients:
– 1/2 cup rolled oats
– 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
– 1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
– 1 teaspoon salt
– 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
– 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
– 3/4 cup brown sugar
– 3/4 cup granulated sugar
– 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
– 1/2 teaspoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
– 2 large eggs
– 3 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
– 1 1/2 cups chopped walnuts
Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C) and spread the rolled oats on a baking sheet. Toast in the oven for about 10-15 minutes until lightly browned. Once done, remove from the oven and allow to cool.
2. In a medium-sized bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon. Mix well and set aside.
3. Using a stand mixer or hand mixer, cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
4. Add the vanilla extract, lemon juice, and eggs to the butter mixture and continue to beat until well combined.
5. Gradually add the dry flour mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
6. Stir in the toasted oats, chocolate chips, and chopped walnuts until evenly distributed throughout the cookie dough.
7. Using a cookie scoop or spoon, drop rounded balls of dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Make sure to leave enough space between each ball for the cookies to spread while baking.
8. Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown but the centers are still soft.
9. Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
