Tips To Make this Recipe Perfectly

Use rolled oats! This ensures that the cookies have that delicious chewy texture and bake up nicely in the oven

Let the cookies cool on your baking sheet for 10 minutes after taking them out of the oven. This allows the cookies to set and helps them hold together

Use a cookie scoop to scoop the dough onto baking sheets! Usually for baking cookies I don't use a scoop but for these ones it works perfectly! This helps ensure that all your cookies are the same size and shape, and also prevents making a mess since oatmeal cookie dough is quite soft and chunky.
