Directions
Step 1:
Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C). Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Whisk together flour, oats, cinnamon, baking soda and salt.
Step 2:
In separate bowl and using electric mixer, beat together shortening, brown sugar and corn syrup; beat in egg and vanilla. Stir in flour mixture until combined.
