01 Step
Recipe View
Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Line baking sheets with aluminum foil, then generously coat the foil with nonstick cooking spray. (5 minutes)
02 Step
Recipe View
In a medium bowl, whisk together the quick-cooking oats, all-purpose flour, salt, and baking powder until well combined. (5 minutes)
03 Step
Recipe View
In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar using an electric mixer until light and fluffy. (5 minutes)
04 Step

Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until fully incorporated. (2 minutes)
05 Step
Recipe View
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Be careful not to overmix. (3 minutes)
06 Step
Recipe View
Drop the dough by teaspoonfuls onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 1/2 inches apart to allow for spreading. (10 minutes)
07 Step
Recipe View
Bake in the preheated oven until the edges of the cookies are golden brown and lacy, approximately 10 to 12 minutes. (10-12 minutes)
08 Step
Recipe View
Remove from oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for about 10 to 15 minutes. This allows them to firm up slightly and makes them easier to peel off. (10-15 minutes)
09 Step
Recipe View
Carefully peel the cookies off the foil using your fingers or a thin spatula. If desired, while still warm, roll the cookies into tubes or other shapes before they cool completely. (10 minutes)
10 Step
Recipe View
Repeat with remaining dough, ensuring to re-spray the baking sheets with nonstick cooking spray between batches to prevent sticking. (5 minutes)
For the best results, use a high-quality nonstick cooking spray to ensure the cookies release easily from the foil.
If you want to add a hint of warmth, consider adding 1/4 teaspoon of ground cinnamon to the dry ingredients.
These cookies are best enjoyed fresh, but can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
Experiment with different extracts such as almond or lemon for a unique flavor profile.
For a decadent touch, dip the cooled cookies in melted chocolate and sprinkle with chopped nuts or sea salt.
