Pro Tips (FAQ-Style)
How do I keep them soft? Use instant oats, do not overmix and pull cookies from the oven when centers are just set.
Can they be made gluten-free? Yes—use certified gluten-free oats and gluten-free flour blend.
Why use maple syrup? It adds moisture and keeps the cookies soft and chewy.
