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