Preparation Steps

• Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, oats, baking soda, ginger, cinnamon, and cloves until evenly combined.
• In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter and brown sugar until creamy and smooth, then mix in the molasses and egg until well incorporated.
• Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture to the wet ingredients and stir until just combined.
• Drop tablespoon-sized scoops of the dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
• Bake for 10 to 12 minutes or until edges are firm but centers are still soft.
• Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
