Ingredients
1 cup unsalted butter, softened to room temperature 216g
1 cup dark brown sugar, tightly packed 200g
1/2 cup sugar 100g
2 large eggs
1 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 Tablespoons maple syrup (real maple syrup or pancake syrup would work)
1 3/4 cup + 2 Tablespoons all-purpose flour 230g
1 Tablespoon cornstarch cornflour in UK
1 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 teaspoon cinnamon optional
3 cups old fashioned rolled oats 285g
2 cups chocolate chips I prefer semisweet or dark, but milk or even white chocolate chips would work, depending on your preference

Instructions
00:00 Introduction
00:22 Beat butter in the bowl of a stand mixer (or using an electric beater) for about 30 seconds. Add sugars and beat until light and fluffy (pause to scrape down sides and bottom of bowl, if needed).
01:09 Add eggs, one at a time, beating until combined.
01:19 Stir in vanilla extract and maple syrup.
01:56 In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, cornstarch, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.
02:33 Gradually add flour mixture to butter mixture until completely combined. Be sure to scrape the sides and bottom of the bowl so ingredients are well-mixed.
02:52 Gradually stir in oats until completely combined and then stir in chocolate chips.
03:15 Chill dough in refrigerator for 30 minutes.
03:25 Preheat oven to 350F (175C) and prepare cookie sheets by lining with parchment paper.
03:33 Drop cookie by rounded 2-3 Tablespoon-sized ball onto parchment paper, spacing at least 2" apart.
04:01 Bake on 350F (175C) for 12-13 (edges should be slightly browned, centers may still be slightly underbaked but shouldn't be raw, they'll bake completely as they cool).
04:15 Allow cookies to cool for 5-10 minutes on cookie sheet before transferring to cooling rack to cool completely.

These were the best cookies I've ever had, maybe ever! My husband who does not like oatmeal, loved them (and kids too!)! After trying your recipes three times I can honestly say I'll never try anybody else's baking recipes! I've been looking for reliable baking recipes for years on youtube, and everything I make that you create is AWESOME! Thanks for freely sharing your gifts and talents with us, its a gift to us all <3

I’ve made this recipe half a dozen times and they are always a hit!! Thank you!

I tried this last night and it didn't come out so well so I decided to look up a youtube recipe. Your use of the egg and properly sized dough balls are what made them taste incredible. Thanks!

These cookies are really, really good. I looked all over YouTube for the "best" oatmeal chocolate chip cookie recipe and I think I found it here. I followed the recipe to the letter but used a type of chocolate chips that are 50% chips and 50% chunks. The batter is very, very stiff especially after a 30 minute stay in the refridgerator. I accordingly extended the bake time to around 18 minutes at 350 which resulted in a very "gnarly" yet very delicious cookie of about 2 3/4" wide by 1" high. I love the abdundance of hardy old fashioned rolled oats balanced with some real "in your face" chocolatiness. The cinnamon and maple syrup are very interesting additions as well. Thanks for sharing!

I made them without cornflour and replaced syrup with a little honey and they came out great thanks for the recipe

I came across this video. Tried many cookie recipes on YouTube. By far this is the best cookies recipe ever.👏👏

[CanadianBisdak]

This is by far the best, I’ve tried so many recipes from YouTube, I guess this one is to keep forever now. Followed the recipe as is. For me the proportion of flour and oatmeal are perfect.

I've started baking since quarantining, and THIS recipe is the best oatmeal chocolate chip cookie I've found on Youtube! My family loves them so much! I sometimes modify it by also adding chopped walnuts and it also tastes great!

Truly spectacular cookies!! The best oatmeal chocolate chip recipe EVER!! My search has ended, these are perfect! Easy to make, buttery, chewy, and deliciously beautiful...they looked exactly like the cookies in the video! The bake time is dead on as well. I haven't been disappointed with a single recipe of yours. Many thanks!!

[randkamal]

Yes, me too I searched for the best chocolate chip cookies recipe , and I think you won 😜👍👏👏👏

I've tried a BUNCH of your cookie recipes, and these might just be my FAVORITE. My taste-testers agree. Except, I think they're best with raisins instead of chocolate chips. But we've found 1.5 cups of raisins has a better cookie-to-raisin ratio than 2 cups. Even with chocolate chips, these are still FIRE. Going to try a hybrid chocolate chip/raisin version next time. Such a killer base cookie recipe. Always keep coming back to your channel. You're the best! YouTube needs to give you more love and exposure!!!

I did not have old fashioned oats so instead of using half cup of white sugar I used quarter and then used 7 individual packets of maple brown instant oats, everything else was as in the recipe. It came out awesome! Thank you!

[wolfrunners]

Really easy recipe to follow! I've tried this myself and here are some of my thoughts:


• Instead of 3 cups of old fashion rolled oats, I did 2 cups because after 2 cups I've noticed there was a LOT of oats and I didn't think the 3rd cup was necessary -- but this is totally a personal preference!
• I also added a bit less salt than what was stated, but that's also because I prefer it that way


Overall, an amazing recipe! It was so soft and chewy, my whole family loved it! It makes a LOT of cookies as well :)

[danikcong]

Just baked these cookies and they were SO GOOD! loved the secret ingredient -- really made it extra chewy. Thank you for this!! I don't bake at all, this was easy to follow :)

[Mx.Pickle]

I'm definitely gonna try this out, I love baking with oatmeal and chocolate chips!

[elgiacomo]

One of my all-time favorite cookie recipes. They're great with chocolate chips, but this recipe makes for a KILLER oatmeal raisin cookie using 1.5 cups of raisins. OMG. And can be taken to the next level by drizzling with a basic powdered sugar/milk/vanilla glaze for a decadent treat.
