Chewy Cranberry Oatmeal Cookies
- 2 sticks Unsalted Butter
- 1 cup Packed Brown Sugar
- 3/4 cups Raw Or Turbinado Sugar
- 2 whole Eggs (large)
- 1/3 cups Honey
- 1-1/2 cup Flour
- 4 cups Old Fashioned Oats
- 1-1/2 teaspoon Cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoons Salt
- 2 cups Chopped Fresh Cranberries (can Be Frozen)
- 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- 2. Cream butter and sugars together in a stand mixer using the paddle attachment. Cream the heck out of them, until they are really light and fluffy (up to five minutes).
- 3. Beat in eggs one at a time, then add the honey.
- 4. In a separate bowl, stir together flour, oats, cinnamon, and salt.
- 5. Add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, and mix on low until just combined.
- 6. Stir in the chopped cranberries.
- 7. Drop spoonfuls on cookie sheets, flatten slightly, and bake for 10-12 minutes. After a few minutes, move the warm cookies to a cooling rack.
- Notes and variations:
- You can use frozen cranberries without thawing-in fact, they are much easier to chop this way. You can use dried cranberries if you don't have any fresh.
- Adding a few cups of dark chocolate chips never hurt this cookie.
- The honey is what makes the cookie chewy, and the raw sugar gives an interesting flavor nuance and slight crunch to the finished cookies. Omitting them would result in a different cookie (although I'm sure it would still be tasty.)
