Oatmeal-Lace Cookies (Havrekniplekaker) image

I found this delicious recipe late one evening when my daughter informed she needed to bring a Norwegian food item for a heritage day pot-luck at her school the NEXT day! I had all the ingredients and the cooking time is so short so this is the one I made for her. I'm so glad I did, these turned out to be very delicious and quite different from 'normal' cookies. The recipe is from Authentic Norwegian Cooking by Astrid Karlsen Scott.

My mom used to make these - they were our favorites! They are very crisp, and tend to shatter when you bite into them. Watch them carefully while baking since they do tend to burn quickly.

OATMEAL LACE COOKIES



Oatmeal Lace Cookies image

These are a favorite at our house. They are delicate and beautiful. Try dipping just the edge of one side in some melted chocolate and sprinkle with coconut or chopped nuts, perhaps pistachios or crushed peppermint would be pretty. Mostly, we like them unadulterated. They make wonderful gifts. For a nice dessert, try mixing 1 quart of softened vanilla ice cream with ground cinnamon to taste. Freeze to set. Serve a scoop with a lace cookie atop. Note: The parchment paper is very important. Also, the batter will appear pretty runny. It's fine. After I place a spoonful on the parchment paper, I quickly run my finger across it to even them out or round them some. Unsure yield.

OATMEAL-LACE COOKIES



Oatmeal-Lace Cookies image

Crisp and chewy at the same time, these Southern delicacies are simple to make, and they keep well in an airtight container.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes     Cookie Recipes

Yield Makes about 25 3-inch cookies

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 1/2 cups (3 sticks) unsalted butter
3 cups uncooked rolled oats (do not use instant)
1 1/2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 3/4 cups sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 large eggs, lightly beaten

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 325 degrees. Cover a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a large saucepan over low heat, melt the butter. Let cool a bit and add all remaining ingredients except the eggs. Stir well to combine, then add the eggs. Mix thoroughly.
  • Place 1 1/2 tablespoons of batter at a time on the parchment, leaving at least 3 inches between cookies. Flatten batter into a circle with the back of a spoon. Bake for 13 to 15 minutes, or until just golden brown. Cool on wire racks.

Tips:

  • Use fresh oats for the best flavor and texture. Old or stale oats can make the cookies tough and dry.
  • Toast the oats before grinding them. This will help to bring out their flavor and make the cookies more fragrant.
  • Be careful not to overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the cookies tough.
  • Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will help the cookies to spread less and keep their shape.
  • Bake the cookies until they are golden brown around the edges and just set in the center. Overbaking will make the cookies dry and crumbly.
  • Allow the cookies to cool completely before storing them. This will help them to keep their shape and flavor.

Conclusion:

Oatmeal lace cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. They are light and crispy, with a delicate oatmeal flavor. These cookies are also a good source of fiber and protein, making them a healthy snack or breakfast option. Whether you are looking for a simple cookie recipe or a new holiday favorite, these oatmeal lace cookies are sure to please everyone.
