Oatmeal Cranberry Cookies Recipe
Ingredients
- 1 cup softened butter
- 1 cup brown sugar
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1+2 cups rolled oats
- 1½ cup whole wheat flour
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 cup dried cranberries
- optional: ½ cup chopped nuts, ½ cup dark, milk or white chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Blend 1 cup rolled oats in a high speed blender or food processor into a very fine flour.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream softened butter with brown sugar and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs and vanilla, and beat until combined.
- Sift together blended oats, whole wheat flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon directly into bowl with butter and sugar mixture. Stir together until well combined.
- Stir in remaining rolled oats and dried cranberries. You can add nuts and/or chocolate chips, but I didn't. I hate nuts in cookies.
- Roll heaping tablespoonfuls of dough into balls and place on ungreased cookie sheet about 2-3 inches apart. The cookies don't spread that much.
- Bake for 9-11 minutes until cookies have flattened slightly and turned light golden brown. Mine baked for 9 minutes and 45 seconds.
