Cooking

  • Prep. Heat the oven to 350 degrees F and line two baking sheets with parchment.
  • Mix the dry ingredients. Whisk the flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon, then stir in the oats.

  • Combine. Mix in the dry ingredients until just combined and fold in the butterscotch chips.
  • Bake. Drop spoonfuls onto the pans and bake for 10 to 12 minutes until the edges are golden, then cool on wire racks.

Notes

Substitutions: Use semi sweet chocolate chips or raisins in place of the butterscotch chips.
