Old Fashioned Oat Lace Cookies

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 325° and line several baking sheets with aluminum foil (shiny side up).

Step 2

I have very hearty rolled oats and so I processed mine in the food processor just to break them down some.

Step 3

Mix oats, flour, sugar and salt in a large bowl. Pour very hot melted butter over the flour mixture and stir until the butter has coated everything and the sugar has dissolved. Add the eggs and vanilla; stir well.

Step 4

Drop ½ teaspoons of the batter 2 inches apart on ungreased foil lined sheets.

Step 5

Bake 1 sheet at a time 10-12 minutes, rotating sheet halfway through, until they turn a golden brown. Let cool on pan on a wire rack.

Step 6

When cool they will peal effortlessly off the foil!

Step 7

Store in an airtight container and don’t forget to hide a secret stash for you! You earned it!
