Step 1
Melt the butter in a medium-sized pot on the stove while stirring. Add the oats, coat them with the butter, and remove the pot from the stove.
Step 2
In a large bowl, mix the egg and sugar with the normal beaters of your electric mixer until creamy.
Step 3
In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Give everything a good stir and add it to the large bowl in small increments while beating with your electric mixer on a low setting. Set your mixer aside.
Step 4
Fold in the oat and butter mixture with a spatula until everything is well combined.
Step 5
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and line your baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 6
Use a heaping teaspoon of dough per cookie and place it onto the parchment with lots of space between the cookies (they will increase their size quite a bit in the oven).
Step 7
Bake the cookies in the oven for around 12 minutes until the edges start to brown. Since every oven is different, the baking time might vary slightly.
Step 8
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes. Then carefully transfer the cookies to a cooling tray.
