I have the same comment as Amy - the rolled oats are very prominent visually (not fine crumb like yours) and the batter was very wet using the exact same ingredients. The bottom is golden but the top pale and “oatey”. Not crispy at all. Help!?

Sorry to hear that - did you leave the mixture to soak for 10 minutes before shaping into cookies to let the oats bind together as per the instructions? If not, then doing this next time should help!!
