Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 tsp baking soda

Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 175°C. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the old-fashioned rolled oats, all-purpose flour, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and salt. Set this dry mixture aside.

- Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
