Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 2 cups old-fashioned oats
  • 1 cup dried cranberries
  • 1 cup white chocolate chips

Instructions

1. Preheat Oven:

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.

2. Cream the Butter and Sugars:

  1. In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy.
  2. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.

3. Combine Dry Ingredients:

  1. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.
  2. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.

4. Add Oats, Cranberries, and Chocolate Chips:

  1. Stir in the oats, dried cranberries, and white chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the dough.

5. Shape and Bake:

  1. Scoop about 1 1/2 tablespoons of dough and roll into balls. Place them on the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  2. Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden but the centers are still soft.

6. Cool and Serve:

  1. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • Storage: Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
  • Freezing: Freeze unbaked cookie dough balls for up to 3 months. Bake from frozen, adding 1-2 extra minutes to the baking time.
  • Add-Ins: For a festive twist, mix in chopped pistachios, shredded coconut, or orange zest.
