Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line your baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and sea salt until evenly combined.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, beat together the room temperature unsalted butter, light brown sugar, and granulated sugar until pale and fluffy, about 3 minutes.
  4. Add each egg one at a time, mixing well after each addition, then pour in the vanilla extract.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined.
  6. Fold in the rolled oats and semi-sweet chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
  7. Optional: Chill the dough in the refrigerator for about an hour to enhance flavor and texture.
  8. Drop the dough onto prepared baking sheets, placing them about two inches apart.
  9. Bake in the preheated oven for about 10 minutes until the edges are lightly browned and the centers are soft.
  10. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for about five minutes before transferring them to a cooling rack.
