Team BakeCampWelcome to BakeCamp! We're excited to introduce Lisa Pacheco, an exceptional baker joining us at BakeCamp Weekend 3 in the San Fernando Valley on October 22. Lisa's Oatmeal Delights are a delightful twist on classic cookies. Let's uncover the fascinating origins of oatmeal cookies and discover why they've become a beloved treat.
The Story of Oatmeal Cookies:
Oatmeal cookies have a rich history that can be traced back centuries. They were initially created as a healthier alternative to traditional wheat-based cookies. The idea of incorporating oats into cookies was inspired by the Scottish and British oatcake, a simple flatbread made from oatmeal.
In the late 1800s, as more people began to embrace the health benefits of oats, oatmeal cookies started gaining popularity. At the forefront of this shift was the Quaker Oats Company, which included a recipe for oatmeal cookies on their packaging. The recipe quickly gained traction and became a household favorite.
The use of oatmeal in cookie baking offers numerous advantages. Oats add a delightful texture, making the cookies chewy and moist. Additionally, oatmeal is a rich source of fiber, which provides a wholesome element to these sweet treats. It's fascinating to see how a simple ingredient like oatmeal transformed the cookie landscape, offering a new twist on the classic cookie experience.
