Let's Cook
-
Step 1.
Melt in a medium saucepan: 1 ¼ sticks (5 oz or 145g) unsalted butter
-
Step 2.
Simmer the butter gently, stirring occasionally, until the solids on the bottom of the pan turn light brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in until blended: 1 cup packed (230g) light brown sugar; ¼ cup (90g) light corn syrup; 1 tablespoon (15g) milk; ¼ teaspoon salt
-
Step 3.
Stir in until combined: 1 ½ cups (150g) old-fashioned rolled oats; ½ cup finely chopped toasted pecans; 2 tablespoons (15g) all-purpose flour; 2 teaspoons vanilla
-
Step 4.
Drop the batter by the teaspoon about 3 ½ inches apart onto the baking sheets. Bake 1 sheet at a time until the cookies are lightly browned, 12 to 14 minutes, rotating the sheet halfway through. Let cool on the sheet for 2 to 3 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
