Ingredients
- 1 cup (2 sticks) Heinen's butter
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 3/4 cup Heinen's light brown sugar
- 2 Heinen's Cage-Free eggs
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 1/2 cups Heinen's old fashioned oats
- 1 tsp. baking soda
- 1 tsp. Heinen's organic cinnamon
- 1 tsp. Heinen's organic cardamom

- 1/2 tsp. Heinen's organic ground ginger
- 1/8 tsp. Heinen's organic cloves

Instructions
- Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat until foaming. Continue to cook, whisking constantly, until the butter is brown in color and nutty in aroma. Remove from the heat and reserve ¾ cup. Package any remaining brown butter for another use.
- Chill the reserved ¾ cup of brown butter in the refrigerator for 45 minutes or until no longer warm to the touch.
- In a medium-size bowl, combine the flour, oats, baking soda, cinnamon, cardamom, allspice, ginger, cloves, nutmeg and salt.
- In a large bowl, combine the chilled brown butter, granulated sugar and brown sugar. Stir with a wooden spoon or rubber spatula for 2 minutes. Add the eggs, one at a time, stirring after each addition.
- Add the flour mixture to the large bowl. Stir to combine.
- Chill the dough for 30 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 350˚F.
- Roll the dough into 2 tablespoon-size balls. Press gently to flatten.
- Bake for 9-11 minutes, or until lightly browned on the bottom and edges. Let cool for 5 minutes before serving.
