Ingredients
1cupunsalted buttersoftened to room temperature
1/2cupsugar
1/2cupbrown sugar
2large eggsroom temperature
1/2teaspoonvanilla
2cupsall-purpose flour
2cupold-fashioned oats
1teaspooncream of tartar
1/2teaspoonbaking soda
1/4teaspoonsalt
1/4cupgranulated sugar
1teaspooncinnamon
Instructions
Preheat oven to 375. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
In a large mixing bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer, beat together the butter, sugar, and brown sugar until combined. Add eggs and vanilla and beat until light and fluffy, about 1 minute.
In a separate bowl, combine the flour, oatmeal, cream of tartar, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the flour mixture to the butter mixture and mix until just combined.
Combine 1/4 cup sugar and 1 teaspoon cinnamon in a small bowl. Scoop 1 1/2 tablespoons dough (I use a medium cookie scoop) and roll into a ball. Roll cookie dough balls in cinnamon/sugar mixture and place on baking sheet. Using a glass with a flat bottom, smash the cookies down about 1/2 way.
Bake for 8-10 minutes. Cookies will be lightly browned around the edges and puffy but will fall slightly when you take them out of the oven. Let cool on the baking sheet for 3 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack.
