Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.25 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.5 teaspoons baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.5 cups unsalted butter, softened
- 0.5 cups granulated sugar
- 0.5 cups light brown sugar, packed
- 1 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 large eggs
- 1 cups old-fashioned oats
- 0.75 cups dried cranberries
- 0.75 cups white chocolate chips
- 0.5 cups pecans, chopped
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In a large bowl, use a hand or stand mixer to cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and light brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the vanilla extract and egg to the butter-sugar mixture. Beat until fully incorporated.
Gradually mix in the dry ingredients from the medium bowl until combined, being careful not to overmix.
Stir in the oats, dried cranberries, white chocolate chips, and chopped pecans using a spatula or wooden spoon.
Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches of space between each cookie.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers will still look slightly soft.
Remove from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
