Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ¼ cups butter, softened
  • ¾ cup brown sugar
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 2 cups old-fashioned oats, uncooked
  • 1 ½ cups butterscotch chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, cream together softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until smooth and fluffy.
  3. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, cinnamon, salt, and nutmeg. Gradually add this mixture to the creamed butter and sugar, mixing until fully incorporated.
  5. Stir in the old-fashioned oats until evenly distributed. Gently fold in the butterscotch chips.
  6. Use a medium cookie scoop to drop dough onto prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  7. Bake in preheated oven for 9-11 minutes, until the edges are set and golden brown.
  8. Immediately upon removing from the oven, press a few additional butterscotch chips onto each cookie for extra sweetness.
  9. Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
