Description

Ingredients

• 2/3 cup whole wheat pastry flour
• 1 1/2 cups old fashioned oats
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
• 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
• 3/4 cup coconut sugar or brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 egg
• 1/2 cup dried cranberries
• 3 ounces dark chocolate, chopped
• 1/4 cup toasted chopped pecans (optional)

Directions

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Spray a cookie sheet with cooking spray or line with parchment paper.
• In the bowl of a stand mixer with the paddle attachment or with a hand held mixer, add the melted butter and sugar and beat together on medium high speed until smooth, about 3 minutes.
• Scrape down the sides with a rubber spatula then add in the vanilla extract and egg and beat until smooth, about 2 minutes.
• In a separate bowl whisk together the flour, oats, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.
• Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet with the mixer on low speed.
• Scrape down the sides of the bowl and continue to mix just until the dough is combined.
• Remove the bowl from the mixer and fold in the dried cranberries, chocolate, and pecans with a rubber spatula.
• Use a medium sized cookie scoop to scoop out the dough and drop it onto the prepared cookie sheet leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
• Bake the cookies on the middle rack of the oven for 9-11 minutes or until they start to turn golden brown around the edges.
• Remove from the oven and let the cookies rest on the baking sheet for several minutes before removing them and placing them on a wire rack to cool completely.
• Store the cookies in an airtight container.
