Ingredients

• 1 cup unsalted butter
• 1 cup light brown sugar, packed
• 0.5 cup granulated sugar
• 2 pieces large eggs
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 3 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
• 1.5 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 9x13-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal, and lightly grease the paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 3

Beat in the eggs, one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract until well incorporated.

Step 4

In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.

Step 5

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.

Step 6

Stir in the oats and chocolate chips until evenly distributed.

Step 7

Press the dough evenly into the prepared baking pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or with a few crumbs (but no wet batter).

Step 9

Remove the pan from the oven and allow the bars to cool completely in the pan.

Step 10

Once cooled, lift the bars out using the parchment overhang and cut into 16 squares or rectangles. Serve and enjoy!
