Step 1:
How to make cookies from oatmeal? Prepare the necessary ingredients. Take large, selected eggs. If the eggs are small, of the second category, take 3 of them. Use wheat flour of the highest grade. You can take ready-made store-bought oat flour, or you can cook it yourself by grinding oat flakes in a coffee grinder. Butter and sour cream must be of high quality and comply with GOST.
Step 2:
Melt the butter and cool slightly. Read about how to melt the butter at the end of the recipe.
Step 3:
Put sour cream in a deep bowl, add sugar, pour melted butter. Mix everything with a whisk until smooth.
Step 4:
Add the eggs and knead the mass again until smooth. Be sure to wash the eggs before use, as even the seemingly clean shell may contain harmful bacteria. It is best to use food detergents and a brush.
Step 5:
Pour in the baking powder and mix everything again.
Step 6:
Separately sift both types of flour into a bowl. It is necessary to sift the flour. Firstly, there may be non-ground or poorly ground particles in it, and secondly, during sifting, the flour is saturated with oxygen and the cookies will turn out to be more airy.
Step 7:
Add the sifted flour to the egg mixture and knead a soft, pliable, homogeneous dough.
Step 8:
At first, the dough will stick to your hands, but as the flour absorbs moisture, it will increasingly lag behind your hands and the walls of the bowl. If necessary, you can add another 1-2 tbsp. l. oat flour.
Step 9:
Divide the dough into small pieces the size of a walnut and roll them into even balls.
Step 10:
Place the balls on a parchment-lined baking sheet at a distance from each other and flatten slightly on top. Put the oatmeal cookies in a preheated 180 ° C oven for 15-20 minutes.
Step 11:
The finished cookies will acquire a light golden hue, and cracks will appear on the surface. It is important not to overdo the cookies in the oven so that they do not dry out and burn from the bottom. Enjoy your meal!

Be prepared for the fact that flour may need more or less than indicated in the recipe. Focus not on the amount of flour, but on the desired consistency of the dough. To avoid mistakes, read about flour and its properties!

Keep in mind that everyone's ovens are different. The temperature and cooking time may differ from those specified in the recipe. To make any baked dish successful, use useful information about the features of ovens !

Butter can be melted in the microwave or in a water bath. How to melt butter in the microwave? Cut the butter into small pieces and place it in a special container. To prevent the oil from splashing when heated, cover the oil vessel with a paper towel. The oil should be melted either at the lowest power or in defrosting mode. At first, five seconds will be enough. Next, if the butter has not melted yet, set it again for 5 seconds and start the microwave. Repeat the process several times until the desired result.
How to melt butter in a water bath? You will need two containers of different diameters. Pour water into a large one and put it on the stove. Place the smaller container on top so that it is submerged in water by about half. Put the sliced butter into it. Under the influence of boiling water, the oil will begin to melt. Stir the oil slightly to speed up the process. As soon as the pieces of oil are completely dissolved, remove the container from the stove.
