Brown Butter Iced Oatmeal Cookies That Stole John’s Heart

One batch was all it took

I shared this brown butter iced oatmeal cookie recipe with John, and it quickly became a BRIGHT FM Mornings favorite. These cookies are soft, chewy, and topped with a simple vanilla icing, making them perfect for baking and sharing with your family.

The recipe comes from Broma Bakery and stands out thanks to the rich flavor that comes from browning the butter. That extra step adds a warm, nutty depth that pairs perfectly with oats, cinnamon, and vanilla. The result is a cozy, classic cookie with just a little something special.

What You’ll Need

For the cookies, you will use old fashioned oats, all purpose flour, browned butter, brown sugar, granulated sugar, eggs, vanilla, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt. The icing is a simple mix of powdered sugar, vanilla, and milk.
