  • ½ cup brown sugar
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • a pinch of salt
  • 1 cup rolled oats

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Chop 1 cup of fresh rhubarb into small pieces. If using frozen, ensure it is well-drained and dried.
  3. In a large bowl, beat together ½ cup of unsalted butter, ½ cup of brown sugar, and ½ cup of granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  4. Mix in 1 large egg and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract until well combined.
  5. In another bowl, whisk together 1 cup of all-purpose flour, ½ teaspoon of baking soda, and a pinch of salt. Gradually add this mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined.
  6. Gently fold in 1 cup of rolled oats and the chopped rhubarb until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
  7. Using a cookie scoop or spoon, drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each cookie.
  8. Bake for 12-15 minutes until the edges are lightly golden and the centers are set but still soft.
  9. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
