Homemade Crispy Oatmeal Cookie Recipe

Published on 18 March 2026

Make delicious, crispy homemade oatmeal cookies with our easy recipe and cookie cutter.

Before you begin, we highly recommend using a kitchen scale for the best results.

For the best results, avoid using baking powder. Dough that rises during baking may cause the details on your cookies to disappear.

Step 1 :

Start by mixing 120 g of semi-whole wheat flour, 25 g of all-purpose flour, 70 g of granulated sugar and 25 g of rolled oats by hand until well combined.

💡 If you'd like to make chocolate cookies, you can also add 1 heaped tbsp of cocoa powder and/or 20 g of finely chopped chocolate. Make sure the chocolate pieces are very small to prevent them from getting stuck in the cookie cutter.

Step 2 :

Next, gradually add 75 g of melted butter and 4 tbsp of milk, then mix by hand until a smooth, even dough forms.

Step 3 :

Finally, roll out the dough to a thickness of 4–5 mm (3/16 inch) on a silicone baking mat and lightly dust the dough with flour. You can also use a rolling pin with adjustable rings to achieve an even thickness and perfectly uniform cookies.

Note: A silicone baking mat helps keep the dough in place when you lift the cookie cutter and avoids having to transfer your cookies from the worktop to a baking tray. By rolling out the dough directly on the baking mat, your cookies can go straight into the oven once they have been cut.

How to Use Your Cookie Cutter with Our Oatmeal Cookie Recipe

⚠️ Lightly coat your cookie cutter with flour before each use to prevent the dough from sticking. Then press it gradually into the dough.

If your cookie cutter is difficult to remove, your dough may be too soft, too rich and/or too thick. Depending on the type of flour or butter used, you may need to dust the dough with flour and roll it out again.

💡 Tip: Gently twist the cookie cutter a few degrees from side to side while gradually pressing it into the dough to help define the details clearly.

Final step:

Preheat your oven to 180°C / 350°F and bake for about 20 minutes.

Leave to cool for a few minutes, then enjoy!
