Set butter out to naturally soften. Set oven to 350 degrees.
Add butter, white sugar, and brown sugar to the KitchenAide Mixer and mix well.
Add in the eggs and mix well. Scrape sides to make sure everything is mixed well together.
Add in the Vanilla to the mixture and mix well once more.
In a separate bowl, add in flour, baking soda, salt and cinnamon. Stir together.
Slowly add the flour mixture into the wet mixture. I usually have the KitchenAide Mixer running at a slow speed while I slowly add in the flour mixture.
After it is mixed thoroughly, add in the maple syrup or molasses. I usually use maple syrup but either works perfectly!
Slowly add in the oats and gently stir to mix together.
Put parchment paper on a cookie sheet. I find the cookies do so much better when baked on parchment paper.
Scoop out the dough about 1-inch around on the cookie sheet. Leave about 1-2 inch room between each cookie.
Bake in the oven for about 10-12 minutes.
Pull the cookies out of the oven. Once they are cooled, they are ready to eat and/or for the creme!
