Ingredients:
1 cup (125 grams) all-purpose flour (spooned & leveled)
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 and 3/4 cups (175 grams) old-fashioned rolled oats
1/2 cup (115 grams) unsalted butter softened
1/2 cup (100 grams) light brown sugar packed
1/4 cup (50 grams) granulated sugar
1 large egg at room temperature
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 cup (120 grams) chopped apple
Instructions:
-Preheat the oven to 350°F (177°C). Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
-In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, baking soda, and salt until well combined. Stir in the old-fashioned rolled oats and set aside.
-Using a handheld mixer or stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar together for 1 to 2 minutes or until fully combined. Mix in the egg and vanilla extract, making sure to stop and scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed.
-Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until just combined. Gently fold in the chopped apple until fully incorporated into the cookie dough.
-Using a 1.5 tablespoon cookie scoop, scoop balls of the cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheets, making sure to leave a little room between each one.
-Bake for 12 to 15 minutes or until the tops of the cookies are set.
-Remove from the oven and allow to cool on the baking sheet for 5 to 10 minutes, then transfer the cookies to a wire rack to cool completely.
