Description

Ingredients

• 1 cup (100g) instant oats (gluten-free if necessary and measured correctly)
• ¾ cup (90g) whole wheat or gluten-free* flour (measured correctly)
• 1 ½ tsp baking powder
• 1 tsp ground cinnamon
• ¼ tsp salt
• 2 tbsp (28g) coconut oil or unsalted butter, melted and cooled slightly
• 1 large egg, room temperature
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• ½ cup (120mL) pure maple syrup
• ½ cup (55g) fresh cranberries, chopped
• 3 tbsp (42g) chopped dark chocolate (I used Ghirardelli)

Directions

• Whisk together the oats, flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt in a medium bowl. In a separate bowl, whisk together the coconut oil, egg, and vanilla. Stir in the maple syrup. Add in the flour mixture, stirring just until incorporated. Fold in the cranberries and 2 ½ tablespoons of the chopped dark chocolate. Chill the cookie dough for 30 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 325°F, and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
• Drop the cookie dough into 15 rounded scoops onto the prepared sheet, and flatten to the desired thickness and width using a spatula. Gently press the remaining chopped dark chocolate into the tops. Bake at 325°F for 9-12 minutes. Cool on the pan for 10 minutes before turning out onto a wire rack.
