The Whole Wheat Tollhouse Cookie
1 cup whole wheat flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
10 tablespoons butter softened
1 cup brown sugar
1 egg, slightly beaten
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
1/2 cup old fashioned oats
1 cup chocolate chips
1/2 cup nuts chopped (optional)
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly oil a baking sheet or cover with parchment paper. In a large bowl, sift or whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Cream the butter with the brown sugar until light in color, about 4 minutes. Beat in the egg until well incorporated. Stir in the vanilla. Add the flour mixture to the butter mixture and blend well. Stir in the oats, chocolate chips and nuts. Drop by teaspoonfuls onto the prepared cookie sheet. Bake for 10 minutes, or until lightly browned. Cool on a wire rack.
