Steps:
- In a large bowl, sift together flour, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Set aside.
- In a standing mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat butter and sugars for 2-3 minutes, until fluffy. Beat in the egg until combined, then beat in vanilla extract. Add flour mixture and beat on low speed just until combined. Don't over mix. Add in oatmeal and all other add-ins, and keep mixing on low just until combined. The less you mix, the softer the cookies will be. Dough will be sticky and soft at this point, so I highly recommend chilling it for at least 30-60 minutes. Cover and place in the fridge.
- Preheat oven to 350°F/180°C. Line pan with parchment paper and set aside.
- Drop rounded balls of dough onto prepared baking sheet, the size of 2 tablespoons each, and spacing 2 inches apart. Bake for 10-12 minutes, until cookies just begin to brown at the edges and center is still soft. Cookies will appear undone and moist in the center, but will continue to bake on the warm baking sheet. Leave to cool for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days, or freeze for up to 2 months. To thaw, leave on counter, still covered, or overnight in the fridge.

CHEWY OATMEAL COOKIES
These cookies will remedy whatever kind of bad day you have had. They're the cookies you eat when you forgot a homework assignment, when your coworkers call in sick on a snow day, or when you're exhausted after moving all your stuff to a new apartment. They're craveable as well as comforting. They also make a great blank canvas: You can add up to 1 1/2 cups of inclusions -- some of my favorites are chocolate chunks, dried fruit, coarsely chopped nuts, and/or candied ginger.

Tips:
- Use fresh, high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients, the better the cookies will be. Opt for old-fashioned oats, pure vanilla extract, and real butter.
- Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough will result in tough, dry cookies. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough will help the cookies hold their shape and spread less in the oven.
- Bake the cookies at a high temperature: Baking the cookies at a high temperature will help them develop a chewy texture.
- Don't overbake the cookies: Overbaking the cookies will make them dry and crumbly. Bake the cookies just until the edges are golden brown and the centers are set.
