Baker’s Notes:

thick & chewy; hints of cinnamon

quick to make; cozy and satisfying

Hi Bakers!

Understated yet gratifying, you are going to love these Iced Brown Butter Oatmeal Cookie Bars - I just know it. They are thick and chewy with loads of flavor from browned butter, cinnamon, and maple syrup. 

Imagine biting into one of these bars under an hour from right now. So simple and quick but super satisfying. You probably already have the ingredients at home. Let’s get those ovens preheated!

It’s fall and that typically means lots of celebrations. I’ve been putting out quite a few festive pies and large crowd-pleasers lately, but these cookie bars are easy and utterly delicious. If you want a break from the big bakes, but still crave a nourishing, homemade treat, then go ahead and make these Oatmeal Cookie Bars.

Honestly, what else is there to say? They smell incredible and the maple cinnamon glaze adds flavor not just sweetness. My go-to cookie is crisp around the edges and gooey in the middle, but I’m loving the alternative texture of the oats and thick, chewiness of these bars. 

The one “tricky” moment might be browning the butter. I promise the extra 5 minutes is worth the enhanced brown sugar, nutty flavor.
